#Kolsterising® is an industry-proven, thermo-chemical, low-temperature, diffusion-based, surface hardening technology used to enhance certain grades of stainless steel, cobalt, and nickel-based alloys. Kolsterising® is not a coating but a low-temperature surface carbon diffusion treatment that enhances the hardness of the base material.   Why choose this finish for your fasteners?

Fascinating Industry Articles From Around The Web: “New SEMI Europe-Led Consortium Launches to Boost Diversity in the Chip Industry. SEMI , the industry association serving the global electronics design and manufacturing supply chain, today announced the launch of a consortium organized by the European Commission’s Erasmus+ programme to enhance Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in the European microelectronics sector. SEMI Europe and the new 11-partner European Chips Diversity Alliance (ECDA) consortium will develop an innovative and robust partnership between academia and industry to lower barriers to joining the microelectronics workforce for underrepresented groups, with the goal of growing the competitiveness of Europe’s broader electronics industry.”   Read the article> https://lnkd.in/gGKU3h_G   -UC Components, Inc. | www.uccomponents.com | 408-782-1929 | #UCComponents #RediVac #Fasteners #Hardware #Screws #VentedScrews #VentedWashers #HexNuts #Orings #Vacuum #HighVacuum #UltraHighVacuum

There are a variety of O-rings on the market today which vary widely from manufacturer to manufacturer, the source of the materials used, and even from lot to lot. An O-ring is a round solid rubber seal that, when compressed between two surfaces, blocks the passage of liquids or gasses. O-rings were first used at the beginning of the 20th century and are still used today in a variety of critical and non-critical applications. These little seals have changed very little in form or function over the years, yet the materials used in their manufacture have become more complex. Essentially O-rings remain a reliable and straightforward solution to an age-old problem.   How does an O-ring work?   Learn more> https://lnkd.in/gmujkUkk   -UC Components, Inc. | www.uccomponents.com | 408-782-1929 | #UCComponents #RediVac #Fasteners #Hardware #Screws #VentedScrews #VentedWashers #HexNuts #Orings #Vacuum #HighVacuum #UltraHighVacuum

A First Article Inspection (FAI) is an official design verification and history method providing a detailed reporting of measurements for all key features of a part or assembly. The First Article Inspection (FAI) is typically called for in a purchase order and conducted on a prototype or a first-time order for a customer who has a higher level of industry specific specifications and requirements that must be met. Do your parts play FAIR?   Learn more> https://lnkd.in/gqhahB44   -UC Components, Inc. | www.uccomponents.com | 408-782-1929 | #UCComponents #RediVac #Fasteners #Hardware #Screws #VentedScrews #VentedWashers #HexNuts #Orings #Vacuum #HighVacuum #UltraHighVacuum

UC Components, Inc. offers an electropolished finish for all our RediVac® screws, washers, and hex nuts. The electropolishing process carefully dissolves unwanted surface metals. It leaves behind the true base metal(s) of a component and significantly reduces surface burrs, chips, and peeling; which is especially important for threaded components. Electropolishing also greatly reduces surface particulate, improves corrosion resistance, helps reduce outgassing, and imparts a bright, chrome-like finish.   Why choose this finish for your fasteners?

Fascinating Industry Articles From Around The Web: “Quantum Computers, Coming to a Data Center Near You Getting quantum and classical hardware to coexist takes deft engineering. Quantum processors are expected to massively outperform classical ones on certain problems, but for many computing tasks they offer little advantage. That’s leading to a growing focus on hybrid computing systems that could combine the best of both approaches. But getting such different technologies to work together smoothly is challenging. Quantum hardware struggles in a noisy data center, doesn’t naturally fit in with software architecture, and there is a technical language barrier between quantum and classical computing engineers.”   Read the article> https://lnkd.in/gHkRe_BK   -UC Components, Inc. | www.uccomponents.com | 408-782-1929 | #UCComponents #RediVac #Fasteners #Hardware #Screws #VentedScrews #VentedWashers #HexNuts #Orings #Vacuum #HighVacuum #UltraHighVacuum

High-temperature fasteners are used extensively in critical industries such as semiconductor, aerospace, automotive, and oil/gas. They are specially designed to be able to withstand high temperatures and extreme environments. On top of that they are designed to withstand the alternate phases of extreme heat and cooling without damaging the fastener. Fasteners created from alloys that are not designed for high-temperature environments will oxidize (corrode or rust) if used in these environments. The fasteners will also expand as the temperature rises, putting pressure on the hole it was driven into, then contract as the temperatures go back down, which makes them loose inside of the hole.   What alloys are typically used to create high-temperature fasteners?   Learn more> https://lnkd.in/geDxuRG2   -UC Components, Inc. | www.uccomponents.com | 408-782-1929 | #UCComponents #RediVac #Fasteners #Hardware #Screws #VentedScrews #VentedWashers #HexNuts #Orings #Vacuum #HighVacuum #UltraHighVacuum
