They are made by molecularly bonding 99.9% pure electrolytic copperon to a low carbon steel core. Furse rods are not of the sheathed type. They are highlyresistant to corrosion, and because the steel used has a very high tensile strength, they canbe driven by power hammers to great depths.The counter-bored couplings are made from high copper content alloy, commercial brass isnot used. This again ensures excellent corrosion resistance and high strength.B7/4Total Solution to Earthing & Lightning Protection LIT211GB 0115

Fiberglass sucker rods offer operators unique benefits over steel sucker rods, allowing them to produce more fluids while lowering operating costs. Fiberglass sucker rods are stronger, lighter, and more elastic than steel sucker rods, reducing stresses on the rod string, while allowing for more fluid production and lower lifting costs.
E-bypass. The ABB E-Clipse Bypass has taken these developments to the next level. In addition to the benefits of the previous ABB design, ABB has added new capabilities focused upon the changing and evolving customer and market requirements. This brochure will give the user a brief overview
In 1994, ABB pioneered serial communications for VFDs in the HVAC industry. Today ABB has installed over 150,000 units (in the U.S. alone) connected to building automations systems using the various HVAC communications protocols.
