  2. Soft-faced hammer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft-faced_hammer

    Soft faced hammer or mallet with plastic faces. A soft-faced hammer or mallet is a hammer designed to offer driving force without damaging surfaces. They also reduce the force transmitted back to the arm or hand of the user, by temporarily deforming more than a metal hammer would.

  3. Snubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snubber

    One disadvantage of using a simple rectifier diode as a snubber is that the diode allows current to continue flowing for some time, causing the inductor to remain active for slightly longer than desired. When such a snubber is utilized in a relay, this effect may cause a significant delay in the drop out, or disengagement, of the actuator.

  4. Accelerated life testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerated_life_testing

    Low failure - Testing even a very large sample at normal conditions would yield few or no failures in a reasonable time. High longevity - The product must be reliable for a much longer time than can be reasonably tested at normal conditions. High wear-out - The primary cause of failure occurs over an extended amount of time. [5]

  5. Crack arrestor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crack_arrestor

    A crack arrestor (otherwise known as a rip-stop doubler) is a structural engineering device. Being typically shaped into ring or strip, and composed of a strong material, it serves to contain stress corrosion cracking or fatigue cracking, helping to prevent the catastrophic failure of a device.

  6. Hydropneumatic device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydropneumatic_device

    Hydropneumatic water hammer preventers are chambers of sufficient volume to allow an extension of time in which a given flow may be accelerated or decelerated without sudden large change in pressure. See also expansion tank. When shock waves of an incompressible fluid within a piping system exist, especially at a high velocity, there is a high ...

  7. Dead-blow hammer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead-blow_hammer

    A dead-blow hammer is a specialized mallet helpful in minimizing damage to the struck surface and in controlling striking force, with minimal rebound from the struck surface. The minimal rebound is helpful in avoiding accidental damage to precision work, especially in tight locations and in applications such as maintenance work on hydraulic ...

  8. Surge protector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_protector

    Surge Protection Device (SPD) for installation in a low-voltage distribution board. A surge protector (or spike suppressor, surge suppressor, surge diverter, [1] surge protection device (SPD), transient voltage suppressor (TVS) or transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS)) is an appliance or device intended to protect electrical devices in alternating current (AC) circuits from voltage spikes ...

  9. Failure rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_rate

    Mechanical movement is the predominant failure mechanism causing mechanical and electromechanical devices to wear out. For many devices, the wear-out failure point is measured by the number of cycles performed before the device fails, and can be discovered by cycle testing. In cycle testing, a device is cycled as rapidly as practical until it ...
