Steel Sleeves protect fences from moisture damage.

Rail Sleeve System URS (Upper Rail Sleeve) and LRS (Lower Rail Sleeve) models prevent swelling, cracking, and rotting of fence members' exposed ends due to moisture absorption. Made from galvanized steel fashioned into closed-end sleeves, URS models install over sawn ends of horizontal fence rails. Also made from galvanized steel, LRS models are applied to lower horizontal fence member at...

Torque Limiter uses proximity sensor.

Torque Limiter uses proximity sensor.

Torque Limiter disconnects main power source from down-stream components in event of torque overload or product jam. When overload occurs, proximity sensor embedded in air chamber sends signal to pneumatic, directional control valve to exhaust air from air chamber, which disconnects and protects system. Remote trip-torque setting with air regulator eliminates need for manual torque adjustments....

Air Motors withstand harsh and hazardous environments.

Air Motors withstand harsh and hazardous environments.

Non-lubricated Dynatork Air Motors use air supply up to 100 psi, which is controlled through integral, rotary valve. Valve sequentially directs air to 3 pistons. Pistons drive a crank that turns outlet shaft. Resulting high torque and variable low speed, with instant start/stop output, makes motors suited for paint- and other liquid-stirring applications. Housing is cast aluminum and piston is...
