United Equipment Accessories (UEA) engineers specialize in developing custom slip rings designed to endure harsh oceanic, subsea, and downhole conditions. These complex applications require unique design characteristics for survival in these environments. Our marine and oil & gas slip rings are dust-tight and water-sealed up to IP68 standards. We offer a wide range of circuits, from low voltage to beyond 3.5KV, tailored to meet your specific application needs.
All our marine and oil & gas slip rings are housed in 304 or 316 stainless steel enclosures. These robust enclosures protect the slip rings from harsh conditions and prevent corrosion in marine environments. We focus on slip rings for wireline logging equipment, downhole tools, ROVs, and winch systems, addressing the extreme demands of these markets.
