HCC Industries offers many combinations of metals and glasses to assist customers with instrument and sensor applications, including those with requirements to withstand high pressures and high temperatures with low leak rates. We offer a wide range of standard designs and can assist with your custom needs.

Multi-pin headers are often used in sensors applications, such as for rail industry. This industry requires rugged, moisture resistant sensors that can withstand high levels of vibration, impact and general mechanical abuse. The sensor header would have a die mounted to it that would monitor breaking, speed control, propulsion and head end power.
