Metcar

Metcar began developing carbon/graphite materials in 1970 and since then has developed hundreds of material grades suitable for use in industries ranging from aerospace to industrial. When pumps run dry, it can lead to failures, downtime, and unwanted expenses. Dry running occurs when a pump does not have enough fluid present. In submersible pumps, the fluid acts as a lubricant and coolant to dissipate heat generated by the pump through the media. However, when no fluid is present, there can be catastrophic failures within the pump. Carbon Graphite Materials Are a Solid Choice for Food & Pharma Applications Catch Metcar in the May 2021 issue of Pumps & Systems to learn about how carbon graphite can be a solution in food and pharmaceutical applications. OEM vs PMA Replacement Parts for Aircraft Service & Repair When aircrafts need to be serviced, parts can either be replaced with an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part or with a Parts Manufacturer Approval (PMA) part.
