Circuits Assembly - September 2008 - (Page 63) Assembly Insider Special Advertising Section www.efabpcb.com PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD STIFFENER Large PCBs require a mechanical stiffener to eliminate warp and bow, also to prevent copper trace damage due to bending, vibration and rough handling. A must for guidance of a PCB into its connector, and for reliable operation afterwards. • Unique aluminum bar shape accepts a screw or rivet anywhere along its length. • Same bar will install on PCB’s with different hole locations. • Eliminates close tolerance requirement between mounting holes. • Can be installed on spacers to clear components, copper traces or wire adds. • Can also function as a Heat Sink or Power/ Ground bus. • Visit our web site for dimensions and specifications.
