The new post-mold installed CL220 split seam, extra clearance compression limiter from SPIROL has a flexible diameter to accommodate wide hole tolerances. The seam is designed to prevent interlocking in the free state and the spring force generated during installation provides self-retention of the limiter within the plastic assembly.

Once installed, the CL220 provides a minimum clearance of 1 mm over the bolt diameter which is 0.5 mm Source: SPIROLgreater clearance than that provided by SPIROL’s CL200 split seam compression limiter. The larger inner diameter (ID) also accommodates the protective coating of ArmorGalv, a zinc alloy thermal diffusion coating that provides up to 1,000+ hours of salt spray protection for highly corrosive applications such as marine, automotive, mining and industrial manufacturing. The benefits of ArmorGalv include no insignificant surfaces on the limiter and full coating and protection over the entire ID.

SPIROL offers a variety of formed and machined compression limiters to accommodate different compressive loads, positional tolerances and installation methods.
