SHANGERS / APPLICATIONS

Built around the way
your product works.

From an electrical contact to a mechanical support, the right metal component begins with understanding its place in the assembly.

Explore application considerations across our product range, then bring us your drawing, mating-part information and production requirements.

Images illustrate application contexts. They do not identify customer projects or establish product certification, ratings or suitability for every system shown.

01

Electrical & Power Systems

Application illustrations showing electrical contacts, a control cabinet and a metal cable clip

CONNECT & ROUTE

A connection is more than a contact point.

Terminal geometry, housing clearance and cable routing need to work together. Start with the mating interface and mounting space-not just the outside dimensions of the metal part.

Relevant components

Stamped terminals, cage-terminal components, wire clips and formed mounting brackets.

What to confirm

Specify the contact area, alloy and temper, finish, joining method and any electrical or retention tests required by your design.

02

Automotive & Transportation

Application reference collage including metal bushings seated in a plastic component and formed terminal tabs

LOCATE & RETAIN

Small interfaces. Important assembly details.

A bushing pressed into a plastic housing, a retaining feature or a formed bracket can determine how an assembly fits together. Review the mating part and installation method alongside the metal component.

Relevant components

Split bushings, retaining rings, stamped brackets, contacts and drawing-based machined components.

What to confirm

Provide housing dimensions, installation direction, critical fits, material, finish and the validation requirements for the specific assembly.

03

Machinery & Equipment

Machinery application references with machined shafts, equipment and a metal pin assembly

POSITION & SUPPORT

Design around the load path and the fit.

Shafts, spacers, pins and structural fittings play different roles in a machine. Identifying those roles helps define the right datums, mating dimensions and manufacturing route.

Relevant components

CNC-machined shafts and pins, sleeves, spacers, stamped supports and custom fittings.

What to confirm

Mark the functional dimensions, threads, surface condition and mounting interfaces. State any load or wear requirements rather than assuming them from appearance.

04

Appliances & Hardware

Hardware application references with metal knobs, formed components and an enclosure

FORM & FINISH

Where fit meets the visible finish.

Visible surfaces and hidden mounting features deserve different attention. Define which areas are cosmetic, which establish the fit and which need protection during handling.

Relevant components

Formed metal brackets, deep-drawn shells, machined hardware and custom fastening components.

What to confirm

Specify material, finish, appearance surfaces, edge condition and mating holes. Agree how cosmetic parts should be separated and protected in packing.

05

Energy, Automation & Display Systems

Illustrative industrial application settings including production equipment and exhibition structures

MOUNT & ASSEMBLE

Start with the interface-not the industry label.

Charging equipment, automation assemblies and exhibition structures have different operating conditions. What connects them is the need for well-defined mounting, routing and joining details.

Relevant components

Drawing-based mounting brackets, cable clips and machined connectors; tension locks for compatible exhibition and aluminum-profile systems.

What to confirm

Provide the mounting or profile geometry, access space, intended environment and project-specific tests. Confirm compatibility with the actual mating system.

TURN AN APPLICATION INTO A MANUFACTURING BRIEF

Four things that help us understand your part.

01 / The assembly

Show where the part fits and what it contacts, supports or retains.

02 / The specification

Include dimensions, material, finish and the critical acceptance requirements.

03 / The production plan

State sample quantity, expected order volume and target timing.

04 / The handover

Identify testing, documents, labeling and packing requirements.
