Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Relay and controller specification made easy from
Hawco, which we summarised at the time by saying "A5 size Quick Pick shortform catalogue details price levels, delivery and payment methods".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Relay distribution deal covers UK and Ireland from
Hawco: "Song Chuan focuses on plug-in and PCB relays, and is the fourth largest manufacturer of these products in the world".
In April 2007, we covered the news from Spirol Industries
concerning its Knurl pins
- take a look at Knurl pins fasten soft materials
which says: "A comprehensive range of knurled pins is available for making fastenings in soft materials and thin cross sections where their multicrested design evenly distributes the retention force".
Take a look also at the news release from ACAL Radiatron, Relay/contactor is intrinsically safe,
as well as Disc spring ranges merge from Spirol Industries,
and Plastics plants receive automotive accreditation from Borealis.
