05-0255 – Continental Girbau Half-Hard Steel Flat Bar, 100mm x 10mm

The 05-0255 is a precision cold-drawn steel flat bar ("Plat Étiré") engineered for the primary structural frame and heavy-duty mounting assemblies of Continental Girbau flatwork folders and ironers. This component features a substantial 100mm width and 10mm thickness, providing high torsional rigidity for large machine modules. The "Mi Dur" (half-hard) specification ensures the steel possesses a high yield strength to resist bending under load while maintaining the necessary toughness to absorb the constant mechanical vibrations of an industrial laundry environment.

As a cold-drawn profile, this bar maintains superior dimensional accuracy and a smooth surface finish compared to hot-rolled alternatives. This precision is critical when the bar is used as a base for linear guide rails or as a mounting plate for high-force pneumatic actuators, where perfect alignment is required to prevent mechanical binding and premature wear of moving parts.

Maintenance Tip: When replacing structural bars, ensure all mounting bolts are torqued to factory specifications and treated with a medium-strength thread locker to prevent loosening from machine vibration.
