Top Plate: CNC Laser Cut Stainless Steel Top Plate

• CNC Laser Cut: The CNC (Computer Numerical Control) laser cutting process ensures that the top plate is cut with extreme precision. A high-powered laser beam is used to slice through the stainless steel, allowing for tight tolerances and intricate designs. This method is ideal for complex shapes and ensures that each cut is clean, smooth, and accurate. The laser cutting process also minimizes the risk of warping and distortion, which can sometimes occur with other cutting methods.

• Stainless Steel: The top plate is made from stainless steel, a material well-known for its high strength, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting durability. Stainless steel doesn’t rust or tarnish easily, making it ideal for components exposed to moisture, heat, or other harsh environments. It also has excellent mechanical properties, which means it can withstand physical stress without deforming or breaking, ensuring a long lifespan for the product.

Base Plate: High Grade HE9 CNC Machined Aluminium Base Plate

• High Grade HE9: The HE9 alloy is a premium grade of aluminum, recognized for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and outstanding corrosion resistance. It is often used in industries such as aerospace and automotive, where these properties are essential. HE9 aluminum offers superior performance under various conditions, making it a great choice for structural components that need to endure physical stress while maintaining a relatively low weight.

• CNC Machined: The base plate is created using CNC machining, which involves precision-controlled tools to shape the aluminum into its final form. This method ensures that the base plate is made to exact specifications with high accuracy, reducing any risk of defects. CNC machining allows for a highly detailed and clean finish, making it ideal for parts that require both precision and consistency.

Screw: Stainless Steel Dom Allen Screw with Spring Washers/Lock Tite Solution

• Stainless Steel: Like the other components, the screws are made from stainless steel, which guarantees they are highly durable and resistant to rust, corrosion, and wear. Stainless steel screws are known for maintaining their strength even under harsh conditions, offering reliability in securing parts together over the long term.

• Dom Allen Screw: The Dom Allen screw is a type of hex socket screw designed to be driven by an Allen key (hex wrench). This type of screw allows for a more compact and secure fastening compared to traditional screws with a slotted or Phillips head. The hexagonal indentation enables more torque to be applied during tightening, making these screws ideal for situations that require a firm, tight connection.

• Spring Washers: Spring washers (also called split washers) are used in conjunction with the screws to prevent loosening due to vibrations, temperature fluctuations, or other dynamic forces. The washer exerts a spring force that ensures continuous pressure against the screw, maintaining a tight fit and preventing the screw from backing out over time. This feature is particularly beneficial in high-vibration environments or when the screw is subject to constant movement.

• Lock Tite Solution: Loctite is a brand of thread-locking adhesive commonly used to secure screws and bolts in place. The Lock Tite solution adds an extra layer of security by preventing the screw from loosening under stress. The adhesive is applied to the threads before tightening the screw, ensuring that it stays securely in place over time. Loctite also helps to prevent corrosion by forming a seal against moisture and air, further enhancing the longevity of the fastener.
