Post Custom designed protection
With a wealth of experience in producing a wide range of protective foams for sports, leisure and professional applications and a deep knowledge of foam conversion that is second to none, the scope for new protective foam solutions is almost limitless in this growth area.

With an in-house engineering department, at Technical Foam Services we can develop bespoke tooling as well as prototypes in addition to offering a vast range of testing, processing and full-scale manufacturing services.

We love a challenge. So, if you are considering a new application for protective foam, contact our technical team to discuss your individual requirements.

Post Re: Custom designed protection
nstallation takes a little time a patience, I had to use several different tools to get them installed (1/4" drive with a universal and a 4mm alen on the end....all taped up with electrical tape to make it stiff enough to get bolts started). But once they are installed you have some VERY strong guards! I'm really impressed with the fit and quality of these guards.

I'm also running a KTM radiator fan, I had to cut a small notch in the fan housing to clear one of the bolts on the unabiker guard and then it slipped right back into place. I also had to drill a hole in the gaurd to bolt the lower part of the cooling fan down. Easy enough mod.

Time to re-install the tank......Dang. The acerbis sahara tank comes with two metal brackets that support either side of the tank. They bolt to the front engine mount and run out to the tank. They really didn't fit/support very well in the first place and now with the unabiker guards installed they didn't fit at all.

Soooo.......Time for another mod. I decided to fabricate a tank brace that would hold the tank out a tiny bit on each side to keep it from rubbing on the gaurds when full (the tank expands a bit when full), and also to offer another degree of protection for the radiators in the event of a crash. I made the brace attach at the front engine mount bolt again but kept the whole unit one piece to make it strong. I drilled and tapped the brace so the lower tank mount bolts thread right into the brace. Ended up not bad, good fit and out of the way.

Hi

Electrochemical Devices, Inc. works with design and corrosion engineers to produce reference electrodes for those applications where our standard models may require modification. This customization can be as simple as a change in the lead wire type. In those cases it is only necessary to consult with us before ordering to ensure the wire type is available and suitable for use on the product. In other cases, customization may be as complex as designing an entirely new type of housing which still incorporates many of the life extension features of our standard electrodes.

Thanks
