Welded Battery Lids

At Hermetic Seal Technology (HST), we specialize in manufacturing resistance welded battery lids that meet the rigorous demands of the industries we serve including healthcare, military, aerospace, electronics, and automotive.

Here’s why our welded battery lids stand out:

  1. Advanced Welding Expertise: We bring decades of experience in hermetic welding and brazing to every project, delivering custom hermetic seals and resistance welded battery lids tailored to your specific requirements.
  2. Precision Resistance Welding: Our cutting-edge resistance welding processes ensure reliable and consistent sealing of glass-to-metal interfaces. Every detail from material selection to weld parameters is meticulously controlled to prevent thermal stress and maintain the integrity of the hermetic seals.
  3. Brazed Leak-Tight Assemblies: In addition to welding, we offer expertly brazed assemblies for applications that demand flexibility in joining dissimilar materials, while maintaining exceptional strength and precision.
  4. Rigorous Leak Testing: We manufacture leak tested battery lids that undergo comprehensive 100% helium leak testing to ensure hermeticity better than 1 x 10⁻⁸ cc/sec. Our inspections cover both the sealing joint and the glass-to-metal seal, guaranteeing top-tier quality and reliability.

Production Capability

We have the ability to handle orders from ten parts to millions of parts.

We can also do sample parts HST can help you with free hermetic seal design and development to insurance you have a reliable and robust glass to metal seal.

Glass-to-Metal Seal Advantages

HST hermetic seals are hermetic (leak – tight) to isolate lithium batteries from external moisture and foreign contaminants to ensure long battery life
HST glass seals can resist extreme temperature and pressure variations while maintaining hermeticity. Our specially formulated glass materials have high corrosion resistance to lithium electrolytes eliminating glass corrosion which reduces shelf life.

Our “Clean-Seal” technology ensures the high quality of glass-to-metal parts that are free from oxidation and chemical residue that can effect welding and material corrosion resistance
