Elesa's Heat-Resistant Products: Industrial Solutions That Stand Up to Heat

In demanding industrial environments where extreme temperatures are a constant, reliable heat-resistant components aren't optional-they're essential. Elesa, a global leader in standard components for mechanical engineering, offers a specialized range of heat-resistant products designed for high-temperature applications, keeping safety and durability at the forefront. From toggle clamps to hand wheels, Elesa's robust selection ensures performance doesn't falter when the heat rises.

High-Performance Engineering for High-Temperature Environments

Elesa's heat-resistant knobs, handles, and latches are engineered with advanced materials that can withstand temperatures up to 200°C (392°F). That makes them ideal for applications like food processing, automotive manufacturing, metal machining, and chemical handling.

Key Heat-Resistant Products from Elesa

ERX High-Temperature Control Handles

Designed with Duroplast or special technopolymers, these knobs keep ergonomic control and tactile feedback even in intense heat.

EPR-PF High-Temperature Pull Handles

Made for furnace doors, ovens, and drying machinery, these handles are reinforced to maintain shape and torque resistance at elevated temperatures.

Technopolymer Adjustable Handles

Great for fast manual clamping near heated surfaces like CNC machines and presses.

Resistant Hinges and Toggle Clamps

Featuring heat-resistant technopolymer construction, these components ensure smooth pivoting and secure holding in elevated-temperature zones.

Why Heat-Resistance Matters in Industrial Components

Using the wrong materials in heated environments can lead to deformation, mechanical failure, and safety risks. Elesa's components aren't just temperature-resistant-they're also resistant to common industrial stresses like vibration, chemical exposure, and wear. Their use extends the life of machinery, reduces maintenance costs, and improves operational safety.

Metal vs. Technopolymer: Choosing the Right Material for High-Temperature Applications

When selecting components for high-heat environments, it helps to understand how traditional metal compares with advanced technopolymer materials. Elesa offers both options across its product lines, so engineers can pick the solution that best fits the application, environmental conditions, and ergonomic needs. Elesa also offers self-extinguishing technopolymer options, which can be used in environments where flame-proof material is a must.

Durability and Heat Resistance

Metal components-like stainless steel and zinc-plated steel-offer exceptional mechanical strength and can tolerate very high temperatures without deforming. They're ideal for applications with intense thermal cycles, abrasive wear, or heavy mechanical loads.

Technopolymer components, like those Elesa engineers, are designed to withstand temperatures up to 200°C (392°F). These materials resist thermal aging and keep dimensional stability under continuous heat exposure, making them suitable for most industrial heating applications.

Weight and Ergonomics

Metal is dense and heavy, which can be a drawback when ease of use, mobility, or frequent manual adjustments are needed.

Technopolymer, by contrast, is significantly lighter, offering ergonomic benefits like reduced operator fatigue and easier installation-especially in adjustable handles, knobs, and clamping elements.

Corrosion and Chemical Resistance

Stainless steel shines in humid and corrosive environments but may still need surface treatments for aggressive chemicals.

Technopolymer materials from Elesa are inherently resistant to a wide range of chemicals, oils, and cleaning agents, making them ideal for environments like food processing, pharmaceuticals, or laboratories where heat and hygiene matter.

Electrical and Thermal Insulation

Metal components conduct electricity and heat, which can be hazardous in environments where operators interact with heated parts.

Technopolymer offers inherent electrical and thermal insulation, reducing the risk of accidental burns or electrical conduction-an important safety factor in high-temperature, operator-facing applications.

Application Areas

Elesa's heat-resistant products are used in:

Industrial ovens and kilns
Automotive assembly lines
Packaging equipment in food and pharmaceutical industries
Metal stamping and CNC operations
Cleanroom and sanitary environments
