Oval lamellar plugs
Oval lamellar plugs are indispensable components in numerous industrial applications. As a leading supplier of standardised parts, emico offers an extensive range of high-quality oval lamellar plugs for a wide variety of applications.What are oval lamellar plugs?
Oval lamellar plugs are plastic sealing elements that are specially designed for oval openings and pipe cross-sections. They consist of an oval base body with flexible lamellae that bend inwards when inserted, ensuring a tight fit. The oval shape allows them to be used in profiles and constructions where round plugs are not suitable.The most important features of oval lamellar plugs at a glance:
- Oval basic shape for a perfect fit
- Flexible lamellae for a secure hold
- Simple installation by pressing in
- High resilience and longevity
- Available in different sizes
- Protection against dirt and moisture
- Visually appealing finish
Structure and functionality
The base body of the oval lamellar plugs is made of the stable plastic polyethylene (PE). Flexible lamellae are arranged around the circumference, which deform elastically when inserted. The resilience of the lamellae creates a clamping effect that holds the plug securely in the opening.The oval shape of the base body corresponds to the cross-section of the opening to be closed. This ensures a perfect fit without any annoying protrusions. The number and arrangement of the lamellae is optimised depending on the size and application.
Materials and properties
The oval lamellar plugs from emico are manufactured from high-quality polyethylene (PE) as standard. This proven technical plastic material is characterised by the following properties:- High toughness and impact resistance
- Good chemical resistance
- Low moisture absorption
- Temperature resistance from -50°C to +80°C
- Good electrical insulating properties
The standard versions are available in the colours white (RAL 9003) and black as well as in numerous size options for different profile cross-sections and wall thicknesses. The extensive range enables users to find the right lamellar plugs for almost any oval opening.
Assembly and handling
A major advantage of oval lamellar plugs is their simple installation. They are pressed into the opening by hand without tools. The flexible lamellae bend inwards and ensure a tight fit after insertion.Usually the plugs can be easily pulled out again to remove them. If necessary, a flat screwdriver makes it easier to lever them out.
Important: The lamellae are not designed to seal against liquids. Special sealing plugs are required for watertight closures.
