At this year’s Aircraft Interiors Expo in Hamburg, Germany, ITT Enidine is highlighting its head injury criterion (HIC) damper technology and UltraLoc customizable seat buttons. UltraLoc seat locks come in variable or fixed positions, and the Executive Class series for business aircraft offers long strokes and high-load capability for aft-facing seats, according to Enidine.
The HIC damper “combines energy absorption technology into a compact energy absorber located on the seat lock shaft,” the company explained. “The solution can reliably resist forces up to 2,000 pounds and is customizable for integration on various seat lock designs.”
Outfitters can now select a variety of UltraLoc seat-recline buttons, including buttons with LED backlighting to help passengers easily find the recline controls when lights are dimmed. Buttons used to be available only in a single round design but now Enidine offers mini-round or rectangular designs, as well as laser etching and a variety of colors.
“Our team is consistently seeking ways to elevate our product lines to solve the evolving needs and challenges of our customers in the aviation industry,” said William Wilk, executive director of sales for ITT Connect and Control Technologies' aerospace unit. “Like all our innovative products, the new additions to the UltraLoc product line are rooted in safety, durability, and convenience for passengers and crew alike.”
