Avseal® II plugs holes in thin metal components situated in restricted areas. Two-piece structural stem locking mechanism seals holes with diameters ranging from 4-20 mm in steel, iron, and aluminum. Plugs can be placed flush to hole or deep in casting, creating pressure-tight seal with push-out resistance up to 300 bar (4,350 psi). Applications include engine blocks, cylinder heads, transmission components, brake systems, compressors, hydraulic blocks, and pumps. The Avseal® II system delivers leak-resistant sealing in predrilled holes with width tolerances six times larger than present systems. The Avseal® II system also eliminates such preliminary processes as reaming, tapping, extra sealant, or torque-controlled tools. Other features include a zinc-plated steel mandrel crimped for ease of installation by standard hand-held tools and high-speed automation equipment. A tapered plug stem ensures ease of entry into tooling equipment.
- Fully annealed sleeve - high sealing performance
- Hole fill capacity - improved seal and wider hole tolerance
- Larger hole tolerance - simplified hole alignment when automated placing is required
- Seal by compression of the sleeve - improves sealing with great hole fill capability over a wider hole tolerance
- Internal lock - flat nose tip and ease of use
- Improved stem retention - increased vibration resistance
- No locking ring formed by nose tip - standard equipment reduces preventative maintenance
- Low force special version - can be used in thin wall applications
- Tapered sleeve and stem - ease of entry into application and nose tips, suited to automated systems
- Shorter placed length, blind side protrusion reduced - use in restricted space or thin wall
- Can be easily modified - can suit specific applications
- Ease of placing with standard tooling - quality of seal is not operator dependant
