But it is important to strike the right balance, specifying something that has all the right performance criteria without adding unnecessary weight, cost or introducing manufacturing issues. Heyco specialise in products for automotive and electrical appliances. Vehicles move so there is always a requirement for varying levels of strain relief. However domestic appliances vary considerably. A fridge freezer gets moved maybe twice a year; by comparison a toaster is moved around all the time. The people at a well-known electrical goods brand - famous for their toasters - are reputed to whirl them around their head to test the cable fixture! And yes, they use Heyco components. COMPRESSION FITTINGS ORIGINAL RANGE Sizes 15 - 100mm BENEFITS BEYOND THE FINISHED PRODUCT The huge experience Heyco has of working closely with customers mean they understand manufacturing demands. For instance, their bushings only require finger pressure to install. This means operatives can work swiftly and there is less chance they will develop Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) or Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) with consequent disruption and costs for the manufacturer. QUICK RANGE Sizes 15 - 50mm The bushings also lock in fractional increments so they fit snugly into the aperture and there is a small amount of tolerance to the panel thickness, though of course they are all available in a wide range of sizes.
