TAI is now happy to offer optional Al 6061 end fittings for all of our custom and standard model Copper Thermal Strap (CuTS®) products.  This new customization offering is in response to customer demand, and a thermal strap program completed earlier this month.

*Pictured: P5-501, P5-502, and P6-502 with aluminum end fittings, post-conductance testing. *

Aluminum end fittings are 70% lighter than their OFHC cu counterparts, have a negligible impact on thermal performance, and are preferred under certain circumstances depending on the interface material(s) and other factors. 

*Pictured: P5-502, al fittings, post cleaning and preparing for shipment.*

Aluminum fittings are just one new customization option available in our 2019 CuTS® Catalog (being released shortly), in addition to several other new options/services (and we're nearly doubling the number of models in our standard line).

***Stay tuned for more updates from the Thermal Strap Experts!***
