Higher steel prices encourage non-conductive parts

Increasing steel prices and a desire to move to non-conductive parts for electrical cabinets, have encouraged a supplier to expand its reinforced polyamide technology.
Increasing steel prices and a desire to move to non-conductive parts for electrical cabinets, have encouraged EMKA to expand their reinforced polyamide technology. This time to produce a multi-point door closure system suitable for specialist and OEM panel builders. The 1120 program of lock rods and clamps integrate with EMKA's extensive range of swing handles, providing a non-conductive multi-point mechanism as an added safety feature.

It is of especial value for medium to large cabinets, and the 1120 program is lower cost than its steel equivalent, while providing additional internal closure points for an improved gasket pull-down.

As with all EMKA systems, the 1120 is modular in concept and quickly fitted by specialist or OEM cabinet builders looking for high quality detailing in their accessories.

Polyamide slides and clamps operate especially smoothly, and provision of pull-down points at 150mm intervals ensures a solid quality feel to the mechanism for doors from 800mm to 2.2m high.
