What are STP Threaded Stems?
In the field of industry, accessories prove their effectiveness not only in the innovative design of the part, but also in the sustainability they provide. Elesa+Ganter presents the STP threaded stems, a product that exemplifies its commitment to excellence and versatility, due to its many sustainable properties.
STP threaded stems are robust components designed for secure and adjustable connections in various machines and equipment. These stems are typically used in conjunction with leveling foot pads and are essential when assembling and adjusting mechanical systems. However, the key factor in these stems is the material in which they are made.
SUPER-technopolymer is a high-performance material that combines several advanced materials to achieve superior properties. It has been developed to meet the demanding requirements of modern engineering by offering a unique combination of strength and durability. With STP threaded stems, their comparison with traditional threaded stems is distinguished by the following properties:
- High Resistance: STP threaded stems demonstrate excellent compressive strength and dimensional stability, making them ideal for critical applications. They also withstand exceptional resistance to various chemical agents and high temperatures, without degrading. In short, these stems offer greater resistance than stems made from metal.
- Economic Benefits: STP threaded stems offer a more economical solution without compromising their performance, both immediately and in the long term. While metals involve higher raw material costs, and a greater need for replacements or repairs, SUPER-technopolymer demonstrates a lower initial cost in production, and lower maintenance costs due to its firm resistance.
- Weight Reduction: SUPER-technopolymer is lighter than metal, reducing the overall weight of the component. In addition, the lightweight nature of STP stems can also improve the overall efficiency of equipment, leading to lower operating costs.
Technical specifications are essential to ensure that STP studs meet the requirements of various applications. Here are some of the main specifications:
- Material: SUPER-technopolymer reinforced with glass fiber and aramid fiber.
- Load Ratings: Capable of withstanding high static and dynamic loads.
- Temperature Range: Effective in a wide range of temperatures, typically from -40°C to +120°C.
- Thread Types: Available in various thread sizes and configurations to suit different needs.
STP stems are compatible with different bases for leveling feet made of technopolymer, and the assemblies between these two parts can be used to make the following leveling foot models:
- LS.A-STP
- LS.VA-STP
- LV.A-STP
- LV.F-STP
- LV.FO-STP
Elesa+Ganter's STP threaded studs represent a significant advance in the design of engineering components. They demonstrate exceptional strength and durability under various conditions, have superior resistance to chemicals and extreme temperatures, and reduce initial and maintenance costs, providing long-term savings.
