Shrink fitting is more often used replace conventional mechanical fasteners and fastening mehtods. Localized heating of the mating surface provides temporary expansion and allows slip fit assembly. The resulting interface fit exhibits exceptional strength without surface deformation at ambient temperatures. Pillars experience spans for decades. We utilize this experience to design and manufacture systems best suited for your specific application and heating requirements.
