FOR THERMOPLASTICS AND THERMOSETS IN PLASTIC MOULDED COMPONENTS
COMPRESSION LIMITERS may be pressed in or installed by heat staking or ultrasonic welding. The prevent compression of the plastic part under the forces of the tightened screw. COMPRESSION LIMITER ASSEMBLIES include a floating, captive screw to significantly reduce both the number of parts to assemble and the total install time.
