The significance of maintaining a leak-free system cannot be overstated in plumbing, automotive repair, and various industrial applications. Leaks not only result in the loss of fluids, but can also significantly damage equipment and the environment depending on the fluid’s chemical composition. To combat this pervasive issue, one of the simplest yet most effective tools at one’s disposal is the hose clamp. Among the various types of hose clamps available, worm drive hose clamps stand out for their reliability, ease of use, and effectiveness in providing a tight seal.

Aircraft turbocharging systems in particular work to maintain the desired manifold pressure at a given throttle setting, regardless of changing conditions or ambient air pressure. This is possible with the help of a turbocharging system that consists of a turbocharger, bypass valve, and one or more controllers. Some also feature a pressure relief valve capable of preventing total engine failure and other serious damage. Their main purpose is to increase an engine’s volumetric efficiency by increasing the intake air density. Those interested in learning more about turbocharging systems and their functions are encouraged to read this article.

While traveling at high altitudes through clouds and other debilitating weather, pilots will need more than sight to determine their exact location. One category of devices that make their way into every pilot’s arsenal are gyroscopic instruments, those of which include altitude indicators and directional gyroscopes. These instruments work in tandem with the pitot system to allow for precise and accurate navigation. To better understand how these instruments operate and the role they play in aviation, this blog will cover the ins and outs of gyroscopic equipment.

Seals are used to join components together to prevent the passage of materials, gaskets seal the gap between two or more mating surfaces to prevent the entrance or exit of fluids, contaminates, and other substances. Despite having very similar applications, seals and gaskets are separate components that are used for different reasons. In this blog, we will discuss aircraft seals and gasket designs in more detail, allowing you to better understand the materials that make such components up and how they are implemented on assemblies.

A turbine engine will be subjected to intense heat, the build-up of deposits, and a general build-up of dirt and debris. Due to the importance and benefits of turbine engines, they should be regularly cleaned as a part of their standard maintenance. With turbine engine wash systems, high pressure and high temperature water can be used to remove dirt, salt, debris, and other build-up that deters peak engine performance. In this blog, we will discuss the benefits of ground power unit (GPU) turbine washers in particular, allowing you to determine whether they are a good solution for your needs.
