Vacuum Vanes
ACES introduces their new line of Carbon Graphite products in 2013, including vanes. Carbon graphite is the ideal vane material for dry running oil-less vacuum pumps and compressors. Dry running vane pumps have many advantages over other types of pumps. They offer smooth – pulse free air flow, require no lubrication with minimal noise and vibration in a compact design. They produce maximum vacuums and have high air flow rates combined with easy maintenance and long service life.
ACES has the grades and sizes of carbon graphite material in stock to manufacture vanes quickly. We can supply replacement vanes for such pumps as Becker, Rietschle and Picchio. We only need the part number and we can produce the specified vane. With our state of the art machining equipment and excellent material characteristics we achieve and maintain the challenging tolerances required to obtain the best performance from our vanes to lead the industry. Feel free to contact us for your next order.
