Practical Components Inc., a worldwide supplier of dummy components, test boards and training kits, has appointed Estanflux as its exclusive distributor of its products throughout Spain and Portugal. The agreement was finalized during the recently held Productronica exhibition in Munich in November 2011.

Estanflux was founded in 1983 in Barcelona and prides itself on its sustained growth and financial strength as well as its technical team that works to provide customers with the highest quality products and brands. Technology, product quality and service are the key features that company seeks in its partners and is what makes it stand out from competitors. Practical Components’ dummy technology is a new offering for Estanflux and further expands its extensive repertoire.

Practical Components chose Estanflux for its expertise in the above areas as well as its process knowledge, attention to detail and follow-up that Practical customers have come to expect,” said Kevin Laphen, President of Practical Components Inc. “This new sales relationship demonstrates our commitment to providing high-quality solutions and services to the expanding Spanish market. Estanflux’s broad coverage of the territory combined with its highly technical support team will greatly accelerate the adoption of Practicals’ low-cost process solutions throughout Spain and Portugal.”

Since 1996, Practical Components has been the world’s leading supplier of dummy components, which are the exact mechanical equivalents of live components, used when only the physical properties of the components are required. These components can cost as much as 80% less than live components, making them ideal for testing of solder processes, machine setup and other process evaluations. Practical Components is headquartered in Los Alamitos CA and has a worldwide distribution network. For more information, visit www.practicalcomponents.com
