HOT NEW PRODUCTS - Editor's Choice
***Flexible Latex Rubber Tubing Withstands Repeated Bending, Stretching, & Pulsating Forces*** SOUTHHAMPTON, PA: Now available from NewAge(R) Industries is natural latex rubber tubing for applications requiring repeated flexing and stretching. Long used in the health care industry, it has expanded into the food, toy, instrumentation, exercise equipment, and sporting goods fields. Known for its extreme flexibility, latex is among the most elastic rubber materials in use today. Resiliency is another quality of latex tubing, allowing it to maintain memory after repeated elongation, distortion, and pulsation. NewAge's latex tubing, called Newtex, also withstands repeated sterilization with steam, Ethylene Oxide, or gamma radiation. There are no added plasticizers, coagulants, or fillers to migrate and contaminate the stream or cause tube hardening. Newtex remains flexible even at cold temperatures approaching -60°F (-51°C). Newtex is made from pure, liquid, natural latex. The tubing is seamless, uniform, and smooth for maximum flow. All ingredients are non-toxic and conform to FDA standards. NewAge Industries stocks Newtex in eighteen sizes, ranging from .063" to .750" I.D., for same-day or JIT (Just In Time) shipment. A variety of fittings and clamps are also carried. Synthetic latex, or polyisoprene, tubing is offered as a custom item. It is made without the allergen-causing protein found in natural latex. ---Newage Industries Inc. Read More

***Non-Contacting & Touchless Rotary Sensors*** SOUTHBOROUGH, MA: Lline of non-contact and fully touchless rotary position sensors now includes six different series of rotary position sensors. These are ideal for mobile and other harsh environment, limited-space applications. These sensors feature two sensing technologies. The first is non-contact technology with a rotating shaft and is found in RSC- 1300, 2200, 2800 and 3700 series. The newest technology is Novotechnik's unique touchless technology, with no shaft, that features a round position marker that mounts separately-- a distance from the detecting sensor component. The Vert-x E and RFC series sensors are based on this touchless technology. Novotechnik's rotary sensors extend from miniature sensors measuring just 13 mm in diameter for use in tight applications to rugged 48 mm rotary angle sensors sealed up to IP69K to operate under adverse conditions. Specifications include programmable angular range to 360°, resolution to 14-bits and up to unlimited mechanical life. These position sensors are available with a wide range of options including: analog, incremental, SPI, PWM and redundant outputs. In all, there are dozens of models and options to choose from. ---Novotechnik US, Inc. Read More

HOT NEW PRODUCTS

Inflatable Seated Butterfly Valve
An inflatable seated butterfly valve designed for dry bulk solids or liquid slurry applications is available from Posi-flate. The valve is ideally suited for abrasive materials such as sand, feldspar, fly ash and most other dry, granular materials, which reduce valve life. The inflatable seat design provides a better seal by utilizing air pressure to expand the seat against the disc, providing more sealing area and an even pressure distribution against the disc every time. The seat automatically compensates for wear when it inflates against the disc, extending valve life considerably. Standard sizes range from 2" (50mm) to 30" (750mm). The valves are available in a wide variety of construction materials. Visit www.posiflate.com or email us at info@posiflate.com --- Posi-flate

INDUSTRY TRENDS
***Union Clout Continues to Wane*** "Although negotiations between the United Auto Workers and General Motors led to a walk-out before being settled, the quick resolution should not be interpreted as a sign of labor unions' strength, says David Curtis, labor attorney at Dallas' Shackelford, Melton & McKinley. "Union members gained very little. Today's American labor unions are immobilized with shameful self-interest, leaving them nearly catatonic. Even though a coalition of professors and unions are currently working together to 'revitalize' unions in this country, unless and only until a selfless, charismatic leader surfaces and the interest of the American worker is regained and ignited, the American labor union will continue to languish in its current vegetative state."
