Two-Piece End Caps Save Molders Money

摘要

Zeiger Industries, Canton, Ohio, now offers end caps in two pieces in an effort to save molders some money. The concept was initiated for molders running fluoropolymers, whose corrosive nature necessitates end caps made of extremely expensive alloys. Zeiger addressed that by developing a two- piece end cap in which only the insert is made of the expensive material—either Inconel 625 or Hasteloy C276—with the housing being made from a much lower-cost tool steel.
