Low Profile Retaining Rings
Smalley Hoopster® Rings fit into much shallower grooves than regular snap rings or retaining rings. Where retaining rings once were not an option because of groove depth, the low profile, precision circularity & small radial size allow the Hoopster to be an unobtrusive component in the assembly, ideal for thin wall tubes. Hoopster Retaining Rings are easily installed without special tools. Standard sizes are stocked from 3/8" to 3" and offered in carbon and 302 stainless steel. Specials can be made with No-Tooling-Charges™. www.smalley.com/hoopster

Durability of a Bimba Double Wall Cylinder
The benefit of the double wall cylinder is that the epoxy-coated aluminum tie-tube protects the inner 304 stainless steel body tube from harsh environments. If it is hit with an external object, the double wall keeps on working as if nothing ever happened because the outside wall absorbs the impact and protects the inner wall. Watch the impact on a double wall vs. single wall cylinder. Watch video

Design Cube from Protomold
Our Design Cube illustrates important considerations when designing plastic injection molded parts. It showcases a range of available surface finishes and examples of bosses, gussets, and ribs. It also demonstrates the impact on part quality of overly thick or thin sections, as well as ways to incorporate holes and their potential effect on resin flow. Get your no cost Design Cube today.


Short stroke air cylinders
Pancake® cylinders outperform rivals in tough applications. Rugged construction provides unequalled strength, rigidity, and piston rod support. Accurately CNC machined from aluminum billet. Heavy wall prevents impact damage to the bore. Internally captured non-metallic rod bearing can NOT "blow out". Bearing load capacity is 60,000 psi vs. 4,500 psi for porous bronze. Can be used with vacuum. Many options. Bores: 1/2"– 4"; Strokes: 1/16"– 4". Standard delivery 1 to 2 days. Fabco-Air solves problems. Let us help.  Pancake® Cylinders

Solenoid Pump Offers Greater Design Flexibility and Cost Savings
The Lee Company's new LPL2 Inert Solenoid Pump was designed to offer greater design flexibility and significant cost savings to the medical and scientific industries.
The LPL2 pump features a revolutionary port head design that allows tubing connections and manifold mounting. This enables the designer to test the fluidic system using connections to soft 1/16" tubing, and then once the system design has been finalized, the same pump can be manifold mounted using standard O-rings. www.theleeco.com
