Wide Flange Threaded Plugs suit paint masking applications

Wide flange threaded plugs are manufactured with nylon material, which absorbs paint, while wide flange keeps paint flakes away from hole during removal. Nitrile gasket seals plug to mating surface for liquid tight seal. Applied or removed by hand, screwdriver, or torque wrench, units can be used in intermittent temperatures up to 230°F.

Erie, PA - Alliance Plastics is pleased to add the wide flange threaded plugs to their product offering. The design of the product is superior for paint masking applications because paint flaking is kept to a minimum due to the material and engineering of the product. While the nylon material absorbs paint, thus keeping paint flaking to a minimum, the wide flange design keeps any possible flakes away from the hole during removal. The nitrile gasket seals the plug to the mating surface for a liquid tight seal. These plugs can be applied or removed by hand, screwdriver or with a torque wrench. This part is recommended for intermittent temperatures up to 230°F (110°C).

Hydrodynamic bearings are designed for use in large electrical generators and motors, turbines, compressors, and pumps. Thin layer of pressurized lubricant is used between bearing surfaces, so there is no metal-to-metal contact and no maintenance required. Bearing assemblies are offered in pedestal, mid-flange, and end-flange configurations and bearing shaft sizes from 55-1,400 mm and frame sizes 7-112 are available.

GGB Bearing Technology, formerly Glacier Garlock Bearings, today introduced a line of fluid film bearings to complement its extensive plain bearing offerings. Designed primarily for use in large electrical generators and motors, turbines, compressors and pumps, these hydrodynamic bearings offer significant advantages over large roller bearings in high-load, high-speed applications.

Because they use a thin layer of pressurized lubricant between the bearing surfaces, there is no metal-to-metal contact, resulting in little to no maintenance and virtually infinite life. They also have an inherent dampening effect for quieter, smoother operation.

GGB will offer plain bearing assemblies in pedestal, mid-flange and end-flange configurations. Manufactured to the DIN/ISO standard, the bearings are available in shaft sizes from 55mm to 1,400mm and frame sizes 7-112. In addition GGB can provide custom designs for thrust blocks and radial/axial inserts.
