ETS Alliance: Engineered PCB Retainers for Aerospace and Mission-Critical Systems
In aerospace, military, and industrial applications, even the smallest hardware component can become a single point of failure. That’s why companies looking for ruggedized circuit board retention solutions don’t take chances — they work with ETS Alliance.
Specializing in PCB retainers for aerospace and military equipment, ETS Alliance designs and manufactures precision-engineered hardware to meet the extreme demands of thermal, mechanical, and environmental stress. When performance is non-negotiable and downtime isn’t an option, this is the kind of partner you want.
Built for Environments Where Failure Isn’t an Option
Circuit boards mounted in mission-critical environments — inside aircraft, defense systems, industrial vehicles — endure more than just vibration. They’re exposed to extreme temperatures, sustained shock, rapid pressure changes, and complex assembly constraints. Generic hardware doesn’t cut it.
ETS Alliance develops thermal and shock-resistant circuit board card holders designed specifically for those conditions. Their retainers secure printed circuit cards with confidence — minimizing thermal expansion issues, absorbing mechanical stress, and maintaining long-term alignment.
Expertise in Ruggedized Mechanical Hardware
The company’s product line includes:
- Wedge-lock style PCB retainers for VME, VPX, and custom cards
- Rugged mechanical card guides for high-vibration environments
- Mounting hardware compatible with tight enclosures and modular platforms
- Designs supporting passive and active cooling for thermal management
Whether the application is airborne avionics, mobile ground systems, or industrial automation, these components are tested and proven in harsh-field use cases.
Beyond Parts — Engineering-Driven Collaboration
ETS Alliance doesn’t just ship catalog items. They work closely with clients to adapt or co-design hardware around specific use cases. That includes:
- Thermal analysis and mechanical design consultation
- Fitment solutions for custom card profiles
- Reverse-engineering of legacy components
- Prototype-to-production scaling
For defense contractors, aerospace integrators, and system engineers managing long program timelines or retrofits, ETS Alliance offers not just hardware — but hardware with engineering backup.
Trusted Across Aerospace and Defense
From large aerospace primes to specialized defense technology firms, ETS Alliance has become a trusted name for ruggedized printed circuit card mechanical hardware. With a focus on reliability, modularity, and design-for-manufacture, their components help keep critical systems operational where other parts might degrade.
When performance matters more than price — and conditions push materials to their limit — ETSAlliance.com is where rugged hardware begins. Need help selecting a part, or designing a new one? Let’s talk.
