The Fort Worth Press - Beyond Defense: IEH Books $3.6 Million in Orders for Lifesaving Defibrillator Applications

BROOKLYN, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 24, 2026 / When a defibrillator is called on to restart a heart, every connection inside it has to work the first time. That is why a leading manufacturer of mobile defibrillators has selected Hyperboloid connectors from IEH Corporation (OTCQX:IEHC), placing $3.6 million in new orders with the Company.

The award stands apart from IEH's recent string of defense orders, including those supporting the PATRIOT and APKWS missile programs. It comes from the medical sector, a market the Company has identified as a strategic growth priority.

Mobile defibrillators are carried in ambulances, mounted in public spaces and deployed in unpredictable conditions. They face shock, vibration and repeated handling, yet must perform flawlessly in an emergency. IEH's Hyperboloid contact design wraps a sleeve of angled wires around the mating pin, creating multiple continuous lines of contact. The result is a connection that resists shock and vibration, maintains low electrical resistance, and holds up through an exceptionally high number of mating cycles with low insertion force. These are the same attributes that have made Hyperboloid technology the standard in myriad defense, aerospace and space applications.

Dave Offerman, President and CEO of IEH Corporation, commented, "For decades, our Hyperboloid connectors have been trusted in applications where failure is not an option. A defibrillator is exactly that kind of application, with a different mission: saving a life in the moments that matter most. We're proud that a leading medical device maker chose IEH for that reason. This order is an important proof point as we build our presence in the medical market, which gives IEH a meaningful source of growth alongside our defense business."
