Foremost Electronics has added a wide range of high-quality handles from MENTOR. The diverse range of industrial, enclosure and equipment handles provide designers with elegant and functional solutions to satisfy any application. It comprises hundreds of plastic, anodised aluminium, chrome, steel and stainless-steel variants, all with multiple size options. These handles provide high quality, elegant, ergonomic and comfortable styles which can be configured to satisfy any dimensional demand.

The range provides many bow section designs employing single-plastic or two-plastic construction comprising handles for multiple load capacities and temperature conditions. Versions manufactured with highly durable heat resistant black Duroplastic type FS 31 provide a maximum operating temperature of 100C.

The range offers a wide variety of standard aluminium handles including equipment handles, fingertip handles, bow-type handles, handle systems and folding handles. Colour-anodised versions are offered with gloss or brushed finishes.

Chrome handles from the range are constructed from steel and are excellent for high load-bearing and ideal for pulling, pushing and lifting actions in equipment and machinery applications while still being elegantly designed. The thin-coating, UL224 Polyolefine flame retardant, hand grips meet E196690 approvals and are offered in black, red, white, yellow, green, blue, grey, orange and brown and have an operating temperature range of -55C to +125C

Alan Vincent, sales director of Foremost, comments, “Our enclosure and cabinet business is growing very rapidly, and our customers need high-quality accessories to enhance the appearance and performance of their systems. MENTOR offers one of the most extensive ranges of handles available, making them an ideal partner for us to be able to offer a one-stop shop for all of our customer’s panel and enclosure requirements.”
