SPIROL expands compression limiter line 22 March 2023

SPIROL has announced the expansion of its CL220 Compression Limiter, the series now offering additional diameter and length combinations to accommodate a variety of application requirements.

The CL220 Compression Limiter’s split-seam, flexible diameter accommodates wide hole tolerances and the gap is designed so that the parts will not interlock in the free state. The CL220 Compression Limiter is intended to be installed into the plastic component after the moulding process, and it is spring force that provides self-retention within the hole. Once installed, the CL220 provides a minimum clearance of 1mm around the bolt diameter to compensate for misalignment.

Produced from high carbon steel, the CL220 is finished with a protective coating of ArmorGalv®, a zinc alloy thermal diffusion coating complimented with two sealers that provides more than 1,000 hours of salt spray protection for highly corrosive applications such as automotive, marine, mining and industrial manufacturing. Additional benefits of ArmorGalv® include no insignificant surfaces as the entire inner diameter of the Limiter receives full coating and protection.

Rated for use up to ISO Class 8.8 bolts, SPIROL states the CL220 Compression Limiter offers the widest range of standard diameter and length combinations to accommodate a variety of application requirements.
