Abstract: A medially stabilized surge suppressor has longitudinal members joined together at opposite ends of the members and a medial disk supporting the members. The longitudinal members are fastened to the medial disks by tabs that pass through elongate slots located in the longitudinal members. The longitudinal members each include a number of flow orifices that enable fluid through the flow orifices as well as between the longitudinal members. The end portions of the longitudinal members are joined at each of first and second junctions by a pin and a washer forming a non-rotable connection between them.
