Vibration and shock mounts, and its related products, vibration absorbers, shock absorbers, vibration isolators, and vibration dampeners, are rubber mountings that have been engineered to restrict the transfer of shocks, vibration and sound while maintaining support of a structure and allowing relative motion between that structure and the vibrating object.

Metal gaskets are sealing components manufactured from any metal of desired thickness. They form tight seals while under compression when placed between a pair of joints or surfaces. Gasket compression loads are usually higher so as to allow gasket deformation, and it is essential that the metal used for the gasket fabrication is superior in softness to the metal used in the mating surfaces. Gaskets of this type provide outstanding heat conductivity, mechanical strength, and high resistance to pressures, temperatures and chemical reactions based on the metal chosen for manufacture. These gaskets are commonly used in compressors, heat exchangers, pumps, turbines, condensers and valves.

Metering pumps serve to measure a repetitive, consistent amount of fluid by drawing fluid into a chamber, closing the inlet valve, and releasing the fluid through the outlet valve.

Multislide products are metal stampings produced by multislided machines. This process of stamping includes horizontal die applications from more than one direction and hence the name multiple. A set of motions is imparted in succession or simultaneously by vertical stripper mechanism, forming slides and a multi-slide die head. Stamping of this type is effective in producing myriad parts from wire or metal stampings, small springs and wire forms. Hospital furniture components, clip for brake cables, automotive door components, vacuum cleaner washers, clips to support furniture partition panels, furniture, assembly line components are some examples of stampings produced by this process.

Micromachining (or micro machining), alternatively referred to as miniature machining, is the machining of miniscule parts. Parts manufactured through this machining are so diminutive that they are inspected with a microscope. The process is undertaken by machine shops specialized in machining miniscule parts of accurate tolerances. Materials, caliber and services offered are significant parameters that govern the selection of an optimal micro machining service provider. This version of machining is commonplace with the electronic (especially for silicon) and medical industries.

Manifold valves are any valves used to control flow as part of a manifold fluid distribution device. The valve specification, port specification, flow and manifold style all determine the profile of the manifold design. Manifolds usually have one inlet port with several exit ports but can be configured with several inlets and one or more exit ports.

Magnetic drive pumps (also called mag pumps or magnetically-coupled pumps) are a type of seal-less pump that transfers power from an electric motor to an impeller through a magnetic coupling.

Mineral-Insulated (or coated) thermocouples encapsulate a matched pair of thermocouple wires inside a stainless or nickel based alloy sheath using mineral insulation, often high purity MgO. These thermocouples are for continuous use and can withstand attack of corrosive environments, high temperatures and mechanical damage.

Modular conveyors that are designed with standardized units, parts and dimensions for easy assembly, repair and flexible arrangement and use.

Multi-Stage centrifugal blowers are devices used to provide a variable flow at a constant pressure. This centrifugal blower consists a vertically-split casing and impellers made of aluminum or steel mounted upon a common shaft located within the casing, and at least a pair of oil-enclosing bearing housings to support the rotors; this housing is furnished with an integral gearbox that exists as a part of the blower casing in order to increase the rotational speed of the impeller. The performance characteristics of these blowers generate a variable flow and power at a constant speed.
