ITT Enidine to Unveil ULTRA-HERM® at 2025 WEST Conference
ITT Inc.’s Enidine brand is set to debut its innovative ULTRA-HERM® isolator at the 2025 WEST Conference, which will be held in San Diego from January 28 to January 30. Visitors can find Enidine at Booth 1915, where the company will showcase this groundbreaking product that offers maximized shock and vibration attenuation performance specifically for shipboard applications.
Advanced Engineering for Extreme Applications
The ULTRA-HERM® isolator is designed using a specialized elastomer, ensuring exceptional durability essential for intensive defense applications. This state-of-the-art technology withstands harsh environmental conditions, including extreme temperatures, while significantly reducing risks related to fire, smoke, and toxicity. Compared to traditional High Energy Rope Mounts (HERMs), the ULTRA-HERM® enhances damping capabilities, providing unparalleled performance in extreme environments.
Enidine has leveraged nearly 60 years of expertise in designing and manufacturing shock and vibration isolation products for military applications to create this unique solution. With its compact design and flame-resistant elastomer, the ULTRA-HERM® requires a smaller footprint while delivering superior energy absorption and shock attenuation. This innovation represents a new standard in defense-oriented isolators.
Meeting Evolving Defense Industry Needs
“At Enidine, we’re committed to continued investment in material science and the customized engineering behind our products, ensuring we meet the ever-changing needs of the defense industry,” said Dan Radice, Defense Sales Manager at Enidine. “By working closely with our customers, we identified the need for a HERM with greater energy management and higher efficiency in a smaller package. Our ULTRA-HERM® was designed for that purpose, while also providing enhanced safety, higher load-carrying capabilities, and improved damping characteristics. We look forward to introducing this innovative product to the market at WEST 2025.”
Versatile Applications Beyond Naval Ships
The ULTRA-HERM® isolator is not only suited for naval ships but also finds applications in submarines and other sensitive environments where off-gassing is a concern. This makes it an ideal choice for protecting both personnel and equipment from the wear and tear associated with extreme operational conditions. By reducing vibrations and absorbing shocks, the ULTRA-HERM® improves safety and prolongs the life span of critical systems.
