New Mechanical Components and Assemblies Products

Self-Aligning Pipe Couplings facilitate installation.

Tuf-Lok ring-grip couplings work in high-pressure applications up to 500 psig, or in full vacuum-rated systems. Couplings install easily on plain-end pipe, regardless of pipe wall. Couplings are self-grounding, vibration resistant, and leak-proof. No machining or grooving is required to maintain pipe integrity. Gasket materials are available to meet food-grade, high-temperature, and special...

Roller Bearings eliminate need for loose housing fits.

SKFÃ-® single-row, silicon nitride, cylindrical roller bearings offer ceramic rollers, polymer cages, and tapered bores for preload/clearance adjustment. Bore sizes range from 40 to 120 mm. Design allows bearings to reach reference speed of 1.8 million Ndm when light-loaded and oil-air lubricated. Units are suited for machining and milling applications.

Fuse Blocks provide Type 2 motor-starter protection.

Class CC fuse blocks are molded in self-extinguishing polyester fiberglass, and offer touch-safe operation with no load fuse disconnect lever. Rated at 30A and 600V, they accept wire sizes of 6-14 AWG. With CC fuses, units carry motor starting inrush currents, providing current limitation to protect against low and high level faults. Fuse blocks are UL listed, cUL certified and carry CE mark.

Cartridge Bellows Seals provide efficient heat dissipation.

Ansitex seals, for ANSI rotating equipment, are available with elastomer or metal bellows, and come in both standard-bore and large-bore configurations. MFL metal bellows seal has operating temperature of -40 to +428 deg F and permits operation with high-solids content. Elastomer version has operating temperature of -4 to +284 deg F and is for use in water, beverage and light chemical...

Design Guide: Heat Sinks for High-Power Applications

Without appropriate thermal management, electronic components will degrade over time, causing problems ranging from minor errors to critical failures.

Collet Closer offers 3.5 in. capacity.

35J hydraulic collet closer operates at maximum of 5,000 psi for clamping in high-pressure applications. All-steel fixed length design keeps collet and part stable to maintain fixed height from part to part. Draw tube force is 1.8X line pressure. 35J has precision-bored holes in base for easy alignment. It can be used in multiple configurations using connector bushings to reduce both footprint...

Ball Valve reduces number of valves in system.

Series 3L/T2S00 can be configured as 3-way or 4-way valve, with L, T or double-L ports, to permit replacement of 2 or 3 conventional straight-line valves. Heavy-duty center section is furnished with bolted-on Class 150 or Class 300 flanged ends, or with bolted-on screwed, socket, or butt weld ends. Valve has 4 seats for equal seat loading, and trunnion ball to prevent excessive seat loading.

Electronic Door Strike has jaw strength of 2,000 lbs.

Model SD-995C24, 24-Volt Electronic Door Strike for metal doors, converts cylindrical lock sets to electronic access control locking system. Unit can be used on various cylindrical door locking systems. When used in conjunction with digital keypad, it provides high levels of security without keys. SD-995C24 can be field-programmed for fail-secure or fail-safe operation. Reversible for...

Torsional Couplings stop vibration, absorb loads.

LF, LK and LM solve torsional vibration problems common to internal combustion engine driven applications such as pumps, compressors and gen-sets. They absorb shock loads, accommodate misalignment, and handle shifting critical speeds safely above and below normal rpm operating ranges. All are non-lubricated and maintenance-free. Options include pump mounting plates and cast aluminum pump-mounting...

Drive Chain reduces workplace noise.

Low Noise Drive Chain offers spring roller construction, which absorbs impact of sprocket-chain interaction, reducing equipment noise by up to 10 decibels. It is available in sizes 40 through 80, and can directly replace ANSI standard chain for compliance with environmental management standards such as ISO 14000. Chain exceeds ANSI minimum tensile strength requirements and operates with standard...

Self-Lubricating Bearings are made with Teflon-®.

PolyLube(TM) MRP self-lubricating composite journal bearings offer TeflonÃ-® fiber technology. They are able to withstand static loads of ~60,000 psi, and ~30,000 psi under dynamic loading. Fiber's oriented TeflonÃ-® multi-filaments are primary anti-friction components in bearing's ID. Heat-stabilized bearings have operating temperature range of +/-325Ã-
