  • Aren’t gauges designed to handle pressure spikes?
    While gauges have improved in design and durability, they still need the added protection of a snubber to fully insulate them from the harsh environment of a production line. The Ray™ Snubber protects gauges and other sensitive instruments that function as windows to your system’s operation. By absorbing damaging pulsations and surges, the snubber keeps accurate data flowing so you can keep your system performing at peak efficiency.
  • How do I know which snubber is right for my application?
    There is a Ray™ Snubber for every application: Brass, Stainless Steel, Aluminum or Monel construction Pressure rating from vacuum to 20,000 psi (up to 60,000 psi with special high pressure connections) Air, water, gases, petrochemicals British taper threads or American NPT Over 100 models in stock featuring 12 piston options We can provide detailed specifications and best practices for your specific application. We also offer free consultation to help you arrive at the best snubber for your needs. Click on the Call Now button to contact us.
  • Why are there different internal element designs?
    The different internal elements are what provide the adjustability of our famous Ray™ Snubber line of products. Through its unique design, the Ray™ Snubber’s rugged piston moving within its chamber kicks out the sediment and pipe scale that will clog needle valves, filters, porous metal discs and other designs.
  • Can your snubbers connect to a transducer?
    Yes, in fact, most of our snubbers are connected to a larger control system, monitored centrally in a dashboard for efficient operation.
  • Do you offer Mil-Spec rated products?
    Yes, OMS got its start manufacturing hydraulic parts for the aircraft and and nuclear industries. Drawing on this experience, we have developed a rigorous set of procedures which are strictly followed and documented, ensuring our products are of the highest quality and reliability. As a result, OMS and its systems have been approved by many aerospace, nuclear and industrial companies. OMS is a preferred vender of specialized hydraulic and pneumatic components, and various screw machine products to many of the country’s largest defense and nuclear contractors, commercial aircraft manufacturers, NASA, and a wide variety of industries including industrial machinery, oil and gas, electronics, water, waste-water facilities, as well as farm and construction equipment. As a leader in the industrial market, our stringent manufacturing standards on per-unit monitoring has qualified us as a vendor of choice and integral part of our nation’s defense… from aviation and missile launch systems to surface and sub-surface vessels.
  • Are snubbers adjustable?
    Yes, depending on your application, the snubber you choose may have adjustable parameters to match your specific application, without having to buy a completely different snubber. To accommodate variations in viscosities, every snubber is delivered with three easily changed, clearly marked pistons for gas, water/light oil and heavy oil. The unique piston movement prevents the clogging that is common with other snubber designs While each model is built to exacting specifications with tolerances to ten-thousandths of an inch, the unit-to-unit uniformity and easy piston changing makes installing a Ray™ Snubber into your system a smart choice.
  • How much does a snubber cost?
    Each snubber is priced according to the materials and workmanship required to produce it. The price of a snubber is a small investment compared to the costs of equipment and process downtime in the typical production environment.
  • Do you offer a warranty?
    Yes, OMS stands behind the quality of our products.
