On the industrial market, every technician speaks their own language.
And we – as manufacturers – know perfectly well that a catalogue name is one thing…
But what customers call a component is often something entirely different.
Take for example our cable holders for round cables from the UL- series.
We say: “UL clips” and give the size.
Customers say: “bananas.”
And honestly? We love it!
Where did the “bananas” come from at Unilift?
Well, it’s not hard to guess: rounded shape, clamp-like mounting style, often in a yellowish color.
Looks like a plastic banana? Maybe.
But acts like a precise, reliable cable holder – even under dynamic movement.
It:
-
absorbs vibrations,
-
secures the cable in place,
-
extends the lifetime of the cable system,
-
and – importantly – is easy to install, no special tools required.
Engineering with a human face
These kinds of nicknames show us that:
-
Customers feel at ease with our products,
-
They understand what they’re for,
-
And they’re not afraid to describe them in their own words – which we truly value.
What do you call our products?
If you have your own “shop-floor dictionary” – share it with us!
Who knows, the next edition of our technical catalogue might even include… translations from engineer-speak to real life language.
