A Connection to Ensure Potential Equalization
Product innovations, NewsWe previously informed you about the new DIRAK Grounding Countersunk Screws at the time of the Launch on 01/22.
To be able to meet the requirements for continuous potential equalization between the door-part and frame-part when needed, we have added the metric thread cutting Grounding Countersunk Screw M6x12 to a selection of DIRAK hinges.
The benefits:
the VDE-certified Grounding Countersunk Screw developed by DIRAK is fitted with a segment cutting edge and scraping tooth under the head. This unique advancement ensures an electrically conductive connection between the door-part and frame-part, even for painted or coated hinges. We have also added an additional pin with axial knurl and a contact spring to the hinges. This development also ensures a reliable connection between the two hinge halves.
The advantages:
- No additional steps like plugging a hole or subsequently removing paint from the through bore of the hinge.
- Thanks to this chip less grooving there is no need to remove chips, cut the thread or use any additional nuts.
- Simplified installation saves time and money.
