Ergostyle® by ELESA
Conceived for a broad spectrum of applications, typical of new market segments, Ergostyle® elements are destined for hospital and medical equipment and laboratory fittings, office furnishings, leisure and sporting equipment, and, generally, wherever aesthetics and user-friendliness are key requirements for the market success of a product.
A basic feature of the new elements, besides a perfect ergonomic function, is that of adding to the quality and value of the equipment for which they have been designed, by fully blending with it.
All products in the Ergostyle® range are marked by five small dots.
They stand for the five letters in ELESA’s name, an almost imperceptible signature, not to interfere with the brand identify of the product on which it fits.
Be sure to look for them:
a small unobtrusive mark, making a world of difference.
RoHS compliancy
The majority of the standard products available in the ELESA catalogue are compliant with the European Directive 2002/95/CE (RoHS directive, Restriction on Hazardous Substances).
However, there are some exceptions for some products which are not yet compliant owing to technological limits in the field of research in raw materials hence not due to ELESA's direct responsibility.By clicking on each product code in the table, you can directly check the status of the product as to RoHS compliancy.
All compliant products are supplied with a label showing the RoHS symbol.

Lever body
Glass-fibre reinforced polyamide based (PA) technopolymer, with "PUSH" tampoprinted in red colour (avoid contact with solvents, alcohol or detergents containing alcohol).
Colour
Grey-black, matte finish.
Standard executions
Glass-fibre reinforced technopolymer clamping element, black colour, with knurling on the protruding part to make initial tightening easier. Black-oxide steel retaining screw. AISI 302 stainless steel return spring.
- ERS-A: black-oxide steel boss, threaded blind hole.
- ERS-B: brass boss, threaded blind hole.
Features and applications
Particularly suitable when the lever turning angle is limited owing to lack of space and to avoid any accidental shocks which may affect the clamping action.
Stress resistance
Adjustable handles are generally used for repetitive clamping operations sometimes with very high-frequency.
Therefore, the stress resistance (i.e. the resistance to repeated tightening cycles) of the handle unit is particularly important and, especially, the strength of the toothed element which transmits the tightening force from the handle to the threaded element (boss or stud).
In fact, the results of several laboratory tests, perfomed with a special instrument that simulates the most severe use conditions, have shown that e.g. ERS. adjustable handle can withstand without yielding.
The special glass-fibre reinforced technopolymer enables the ELESA adjustable handles to guarantee stress resistance values which are much higher than the ones generated under normal working conditions.
Instructions of use
For clamping, push the lever to engage the clamping device teeth and turn it. By releasing the lever, the return spring automatically disengages the teeth and the lever returns to its rest position.
In case of accidental shocks, the lever turns freely without affecting the clamping action enabling the operator to manoeuvre in safety.
