Unlike household products, industrial ones experience much greater loads during operation. Naturally, if compartment door handle is not strong enough, it will collapse very quickly. This is simply unacceptable, since any damage to the fittings interferes with the functional use of sliding systems and other mechanisms. Provokes injuries to workers and other side effects.
What is included in industrial fittings
A fairly wide group, which includes dozens of different names. It is impossible to imagine the production of a wide variety of machine tools, equipment and additional mechanisms without elements of industrial fittings. Both stationary and portable. To the most important and frequently used fittings, it is worth adding the following accessories:
- Door hinges and leveling feet.
- Handles, door locks and multiple latches.
- Standard casters and wheels for tables and equipment.
- Clamping levers, pivoting and stationary handles.
- Standard engine controls.
Each product not only resists mechanical wear and tear well. It tolerates significant temperature changes, high humidity and the negative effects of aggressive substances. If you initially use sufficiently strong and high-quality fittings, the overall reliability of any mechanism or auxiliary element is significantly increased.
Scope of industrial fittings
Quite widely used in practice, it is in demand among equipment manufacturers. Accessories, as a rule, are made of metal, or a very durable polymer that does not tend to deteriorate from physical exertion. The main areas of application in practice of numerous elements are the following industrial areas in production:
- shipbuilding and classical mechanical engineering;
- production of electrical equipment and their elements;
- machines, units, conveyor lines;
- oil refining and the chemical industry in general;
- medicine, pharmaceuticals and food industry.
Modern manufacturers of fittings for industry choose a fairly wide range of raw materials. Stainless steel and special polymers dominate, but zinc alloy and cast iron fittings can also be seen. Lightweight and durable aluminum that does not tend to corrode during operation.
