Magnetic Latching Valve suits limited power applications.

With pressures to 500 psi, Magnetic Latching Valve is offered in 6-60 Vdc and draws approximately 7 W when energized. Encapsulated into single package, coil and rare earth magnet assembly come with either lead wire or male DIN style connection. Valve requires only 30 ms of power application to latch or unlatch. It is suited for tight spaces and remote areas where continuous power may not be...

Basalt America Announces Stronger, Lighter, and Corrosion-Free FRP's (Fiber Reinforced Polymers)

Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP), represents a truly groundbreaking advancement in structural reinforcement. Lightweight, strong, and green, they are changing the way the construction industry thinks about rebar. Unlike steel, FRPs don't rust and are far stronger than standard rebar. To learn why Fiber Reinforced Polymers are poised to change the way the world builds, see our video.
