Watervliet, NY – Solid Sealing Technology introduces two new series of high current connector solutions. These connectors are rated for currents from 69 to 250 amps and incorporate SST’s ceramic to metal sealing technology for use in ultra high vacuum, pressure, cryogenics, and gas/plasma processing applications. Both series provide an ideal solution for high current…
Explosive Decompression Resistant Materials for Oil & Gas Industry
When gas or gas mixtures contact elastomer surfaces (such as those found in seals) they can be absorbed under pressure. At high pressure, absorbed gas is in a compressed state. When external pressure is reduced, either rapidly or over a relatively short period of time, the compressed gas rapidly expands within the elastomer, which can…

Eliminate Fluid Holdup
Designed for fluid systems where cleanliness is paramount and entrapment areas must be minimized, the TS series biopharm fittings virtually eliminate fluid holdup at connection points. The fittings maintain a boreline seal, coupled with a metal-to-metal stop to improve drainage and cleanliness. The design of the fittings resolves problems faced when using conventional ISO 2852-style…
Sensor Ensures Proper Package Sealing
When sealing packages, the standard practice is to measure temperature, time output, and air pressure input. But not force (lb-F) output. This practice can be a cause for concern because under or over-pressure during the sealing process can affect the look and function of the packaging. Atlas Vac addressed this issue with its patented Force…
DECo Unveils New Technology for Hermetically Sealing Circuit Boards
RANDOLPH, N.J. – Douglas Electrical Components (DECo) launches a new solution for hermetically sealing a variety of circuit board styles, including flex, rigid and hybrid circuits. Ideal for high-volume applications with certain space constraints or weight requirements, hermetically sealed circuit boards allow for increased conductor density, while providing a smaller, lighter and less expensive solution.…
Trelleborg Announces Specialized Sealing Materials
Fort Wayne, IN ‚– Trelleborg Sealing Solutions announce specialized sealing materials tested for biofuel applications. These formulations enhance integrity and long service life based on the development of specialized formulations of typical Fluorocarbon (FKM) and Fluorosilicone (FVMQ) compounds. Applications include diesel and gasoline fuel connectors and injectors, either high or low pressure, as well as…
No More Leaks
Secure seals are also required in topical oxygen therapy to treat burns, diabetic ulcers, pressure sores, and post-op wounds. The FDA approved topical oxygen device, marketed by GWR Medical, Inc. of Chadds Ford, PA, supplies an oxygen enriched environment around the wound area for extended periods allowing the wound to heal. The device is designed…
Miniature Medical Test Connectors with Metric Threads
Medical devices and instruments often require solid seals to keep liquids in or out. It is nice when you can find them in metric versions. The ME001 Series line of miniature test connectors for medical device leak testing applications is now available in metric thread options for secure sealing of ultra-thin hypodermic and catheter tubing.…
