Shipbuilding connection technology
and maritime applications.
Saltwater-resistant
Connection technology
in shipbuilding.
Shipbuilding encompasses the construction, manufacturing, and fitting-out of ships for commercial, offshore, naval, cruise, and special applications. Marine installations are exposed to extreme conditions: saltwater, high humidity, temperature fluctuations, vibrations, and permanent mechanical loads place the highest demands on connection technology.
Only components specifically developed for the maritime sector and certified to international standards guarantee maximum safety and functionality throughout a ship's entire lifespan.
Since 1926 –
Connection technology in shipbuilding.
As a company with a long tradition, owner-managed, and with almost 100 years of experience, we supply shipyards, system integrators, and OEMs with high-quality electromechanical components from leading manufacturers, designed for extreme maritime operations. Our strength: an enormous product diversity from over 33 brands and consistent compliance with standards for use in commercial shipping, the offshore industry, and special applications.
Maritime Challenges
for connection technology.
At sea, electromechanical components are exposed to extreme stresses. Saltwater causes intense corrosion, while high humidity and condensation can damage electrical systems. Temperature fluctuations between tropical and arctic regions lead to material expansion and contraction. Constant vibrations from engines and shaft stress affect connectors and fastenings.
These factors require products that are not only robustly designed, but also specifically tested and certified to function reliably over many years.
Important materials
for maritime use.
- Stainless steel (A4 / V4A) – highest corrosion resistance, ideal for fasteners and housings for outdoor use
- Nickel-plated brass – a durable metal material with good electromagnetic shielding, often used in connectors
- PA66 suitable for marine use – tough, lightweight plastic for cable protection, resistant to saltwater and chemical influences
- Halogen-free plastics – important for fire protection and low smoke emission in the interior of ships
Our products for shipbuilding
and maritime applications.
For maritime projects, we supply exclusively tested and certified quality from leading manufacturers. In shipbuilding, offshore installations, or port infrastructure, components must function reliably in the long term – even under saltwater, vibrations, and significant temperature fluctuations. Our products are designed for this and support safe, durable installation in all maritime areas.
Industrial connectors
for marine applications.
They resist corrosion and mechanical stress, making them suitable for indoor and outdoor electrical systems. Various designs allow for flexible adaptation to different installation situations.
Cable protection systems
for shipbuilding.
You are fire-safety compliant and suitable for areas where cables are subjected to high mechanical or thermal stress. Their robust design ensures long-term safety in marine operations.
Cable labelling
in shipbuilding.
They remain clearly legible even in harsh environmental conditions. Different variants allow for use in various installation areas.
Insulation sleeves &
Feed-through sleeves.
Fasteners
They ensure safe cable routing even in harsh environmental conditions. Thanks to various designs, they can be flexibly integrated into different shipbuilding projects.
