- Light: Medicine/Optical
Fully concealed -> no damage / no contamination - Medium: Central heating/cooling/machinery
- Heavy: Heavy manchinery/industrial heating systems, cooling/gas installations/vehicles

- Stainless - better corrosion resistance (303)
- Fixation:
- Rivets (Øhole 3,5 or 4mm), welding (from 2000/3000 pieces)
- Screws
- Locking:
- with locking: (secondary lock/hasp) used by VIBRATION
