Designed to permanently mount on machinery, the C-30 clamp retracts without tools to allow quick access to the interior. The C-clamp provides up to 1,700 lb of clamping force to establish a tight seal on machine panels, doors, housings, screen decks and other parts. It can be used to join different materials and multiple thicknesses.

The BSA and A3S isolation valves are engineered to maintain plant safety and save energy by eliminating stem seal leaks. The valves can help oil, gas, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food and beverage facilities reduce energy use and ensure operator and plant safety. 

The temperature-resistant, aerospace-grade silicon sealant bonds securely to metal and composite surfaces without primer, and it does not emit hazardous or corrosive byproducts during the curing process.

Grade M-58 received approval from the Food and Drug Administration so it can be used in food contact applications, meaning the oil-free, self-lubricating, carbon-graphite material can be used in dry running.

Registration for the 2014 Hydraulic Institute (HI) technical meeting is now open.

A sealing system for infrared emitters developed by Heraeus Noblelight GmbH, Hanau, Germany, has been granted IP65 certification by VDE Offenbach.
