A fuel cell stack assembly comprises a plurality of fuel cells in a stack, the stack defining two opposing parallel end faces. An end plate assembly is provided at each opposing end face of the stack. The end plate assemblies are coupled together to thereby maintain the fuel cells in the stack under compression. At least one of the end plate assemblies comprises: a master plate defining a master compression face having a first portion and a second portion; a first slave plate defining a first slave compression face; and a second slave plate defining a second slave compression face. The first slave compression face faces the first portion of the master compression face and when assembled, is in compressive relationship therewith, and the second slave compression face faces the second portion of the master compression face and when assembled, is also in compressive relationship therewith. |
