Mechanical Components and Assemblies

Polymer Seals withstand harsh conditions.

Made of formulated, blended PTFE or other engineered polymer compounds, Polymer Seals employ pressure-energized canted-coil spring technology, which enables near-constant contact force over wide range of working deflection. Metal locking ring pressed into housing of each seal minimizes diametrical seal shrinkage. Seals withstand high temperatures, pressures, and velocities as well as abrasive and...

Springs are suited for medium- and high-voltage switchgear.

Rated for current to 1,800 A, BalContact(TM) Springs utilize canted-coil spring design that enables near-constant contact force over working deflection range. Spring lifetime is rated at over 10,000 cycles, and products are constructed to withstand harsh environments. They enable steady current transfer, even in applications where torquing, misalignment, vibration, and shock are present. In...
