Giant diaphragms.

This double-coated, fabric-reinforced diaphragm of nitrile and polyester can be used in applications involving temperatures from -40 to +250°F. It is compatible with a broad range of contact media from acetamide to zeolites. The diaphragm is available in sizes up to 48 in. (122 cm) in diameter and 12 in. (30.4 cm) deep, with a total area of over 2800 cm². Typical applications for the molded seals include process controls, valve actuators, pressure regulators, valves, pumps, positioning actuators, pressure switches, flow meters, air brakes, and dispensing and metering equipment. The company serves industries ranging from processing and water management to automotive, medical, agricultural and aerospace. RPP Corp, Lawrence, MA. http://www.1rs.com/010df-530

Two-element filter design. The EPE Hydroclean filter element is a 4-layer system consisting of epoxy-coated wire mesh on the inside for strength and support, and a laminated 2-layer filter matrix made of micro glass fiber. The micro-glass fibers, which are much stronger than organic fibers, can be precisely controlled during manufacture to achieve virtually any filtration performance required. Two different filtration grades are used for the two layers of the filters. EPE Industrial Filters, Barrington, IL. http://www.1rs.com/010df-531

Elastomer seals. Unlike any other friction-reducing process, "F-Treated" FKM elastomer seals feature low friction surfaces that will always be present on the seal surface even as the surface abrades. The company's process is a permanent modification of the elastomer and is present 1mm to 2mm beneath the surface of the molded part. The seals are offered in standard and custom sizes and configurations.

Spindle seal. The AirShield is designed to work in both dynamic and static modes of operation. Made of corrosion-resistant Viton, it is "two-seals-in-one," combining a geometric design with positive air pressure to protect the spindle from contaminants. Unlike standard air purge seals, this provides positive contact sealing against moderate contamination even if the air supply fails or is shut off during machine downtime. It resists high coolant pressures without reducing spindle speed. Setco, Cincinnati, OH. http://www.1rs.com/010df-532
