SAN Industrial Components
Elesa have recently been pleased to announce their new SAN range of lobe knobs, wing nuts, adjustable handles, knurled knobs and cylindrical fixed handles, with biocide active silver ions.
These new introductions reflect items commonly requested during the Covid pandemic and highlighted concerns, which have arisen in all areas of manually operated equipment.
This includes medical and hospital equipment, rehab and disability aids, machines in the pharmaceutical sector also urban and public fittings. Schools, public performance centres, leisure centres and similar are relevant areas where high pedestrian traffic levels lead to a high transfer of microbes, bacteria and fungi.
The silver ion inclusions work by breaking through the microbe cell wall where they interrupt the action of intracellular enzymes and attack the DNA of the nucleus to prevent cell replication.
Laboratory tests show that 98,9% of bacteria load is eliminated over a 24 hour period (ISO 22196: 2011). The controlled release mechanism of the silver ions ensures the antimicrobial characteristics are permanently maintained after numerous washing cycles, and even in sterilisation cycles up to 130°C.
The SAN range of standard industrial components in black or white is one of Elesa’s “High performing” lines. They are designed as smooth cavity free mouldings to enable thorough cleaning with normal washdown procedures.

Permanent Magnets
Elesa permanent magnets offer a simple way of providing temporary fixing for workpieces, instruments, gauges, covers, doors, signs or drawers. They offer a range of closure from low to extremely high adhesive force in a very small footprint − giving easy manual placement or concealed closure if required. Temporary fixing with high power magnets can provide permanent solutions, quickly adjusted or removed completely.
For example, Elesa’s range of high quality permanent magnets in sintered hard ferrite, Aluminium nickel cobalt (AINiCo), Samarium cobalt (SmCo) and Neodymium iron boron (NdFeB) are structured to have one adhesive surface only with poles optimized and arranged in such a way that the whole magnetic energy is focused on the adhesive surface. The effect in the area of the magnetic field is limited by a shielded system, avoiding the magnetization of the surrounding objects.
Neodymium magnets are ideal for location and temporary fixing of workpieces or panels or for sensor holding, e.g. on conveyors or other machinery. Moving down the scale applications can be as varied as supermarket labelling, locating presentation materials, white boards, cabinet door closure or magnetic filtration, e.g. of metal particles in engine sumps or in machinery and equipment.
These high quality permanent magnets are available in flat format with or without, steel or stainless steel housings in lacquer or thermoplastic coating and in cylinder format with brass housed sandwich configuration. U Magnets and cylinder magnets in red lacquer with pass-through facility are also part of the standard series.

Clamping Levers
Adjustable levers perform repetitive clamping operations when the lever turning angle is limited owing to lack of space, and lever handles. The lever bodies are available in different materials - technopolymer, die-cast zinc alloy, black-oxide or stainless steel - and in various colours and sizes. The range from Elesa UK offers different combinations of materials between the lever body and the clamping element. Two types of assembly with bosses or studs in brass, zinc-plated steel or stainless steel with different threads and lengths.
Types of clamping levers available from Elesa UK include:
- ajustable handles
- safety adjustable handles
- lever handles
- flat lever handles
- clamping nuts with double levers
- cam levers
- cam clamping levers.

Rotary Control - Indicators & Position Indicators
Rotary Controls from Elesa UK: Indicators are used to set and regulate a wide variety of machine functions. These indicators can be used for linear displacements or rotation, to regulate flows, capacities, strokes or setting of speed variators. The reading can be analogue, digital-analogue, digital or LCD digital. The movement can be either gravity, positive drive or direct drive. Position indicators with gravity or positive drive movement can be assembled to handwheels for coupling to the drive shaft.
Types of rotary controls from Elesa include:
- gravity position indicators
- knobs with integral gravity position indicators
- digital-analogue gravity position indicators
- positive drive indicators
- digital-analogue positive drive indicators
- direct drive digital position indicators
- direct drive electronic position indicators
- direct drive absolute optical electronic position indicators
- fluted grip knobs for digital indicators
- magnetic length and angle measuring system
