APPLICATIONS The Slotted Round Nut is used across severalapplications including electrical engineering.They can be tightened by means of a slottedscrewdriver and are intended to be used forlocking components where no specific prestressing forces are required. Slotted nuts are used in applications wherevibration or motion might undo the locknut
APPLICATIONS Hammer drive screws are commonly usedfor attaching nameplates, wall signs, andother similar applications. Drive screwsfeature round, un-slotted heads, multiplestart threads with large helical angles, andan un-threaded pilot point
APPLICATIONS Rivets which use mechanical force on partsto join the parts together permanently. Theprocess of joining these parts together isriveting. Solid rivets are used in applicationswhere reliability and safety count. Atypical application for solid rivets can befound within the structural parts of aircraft.
APPLICATIONS Commonly found in power transmissionapplications, shaft collars are ring-shapedplastic or metal devices that clamp arounda shaft. The purpose of the collar isusually to hold motor components, gearassemblies, sprockets, bearings, andother parts in place and sometimesfacilitate their proper movement.
APPLICATIONS The primary purpose of most washers isto evenly distribute the load of the threaded fastener with which they are used. Threaded fasteners stress the material in which they are driven. Driving a screw into wood, for example, may cause the wood to crack around the surface. Most notably, washersprotect the surface from damage during installation. They distribute the pressure and prevent the fastener from moving or corroding
APPLICATIONS Crinkle Washers are a component designedfor pre-loading and spacing, to improvethe number of points of contacts andprovide increased stability. Crinklewashers are commonly used inmany electronic, food, chemical andconstruction applications.
APPLICATIONS Pan head wood screws are usedtofasten flat materials to timber. Panheads are like round heads, trussheads, and binding heads, althoughpan heads have largely replaced theseother heads in modern screws
APPLICATIONS Wood screws are handy for quicklybuilding jigs and clamping forms, joiningcabinet and furniture parts, mountinghardware and trim, and much more. Screws form strong connections betweenparts made from solid wood, plywood andother sheet goods without the need for cutjoinery
APPLICATIONS Torx screws are commonly foundon automobiles, motorcycles, bicyclebrake systems (disc brakes), hard diskdrives, computer systems andconsumer electronics
APPLICATIONS Pan head screws are often used to secure metal components, such as machinery and automotive parts and accessories, such as license plates and head lights. Pan head screws are a common head type of non-countersunk screw head used to secure and fasten insulation. They have wide heads, a flat bearing surface, and a flat or slightly domed top surface with a recessed socket.
APPLICATIONS A vented screw features a hollow core (has ahole drilled through it) and are speciallydesigned to allow the release of gases,contaminants, and pressure through thefastener. Vented Screws are widely usedwithin vacuum systems and enable faster, more efficient pump-down of HV, UHV, andEUV systems.
APPLICATIONS Hexagon flanged bolts are mainly usein automotive/plumbing applications. Hex FlangeBolts are typically used for automotive andconstruction applications. The flange directlyunderneath the hexagon-shaped head is designedto distribute the load and help protect the surfacebeneath and eliminates the potential need for awasher head
APPLICATIONS Thread rolling screws are designed for reliable and secure fastening into materials such as plastic. They have a tri-lobular lobed cross-section, and form threads in pre-existing holes by pushing material outward during installation
APPLICATIONS All-Metal Lock Nuts prevent againstloosening, providing resistance whentightened down on a bolt thread
APPLICATIONS Tee nuts can be used to fasten materials such as wood, plastic or composite material in such a manner that it will leave a flush surface. This makes it ideal for all sorts of assembly, including in the manufacture of some types of toys such as slides. The tee nut has a long body and a flange in one end. It is also used for particle or composite materials workpiece, leaving a flush surface.
APPLICATIONS Dome nuts cover the threaded end of afastener meaning that they are especiallysuitable for when a nut is used inapplications where the aesthetics matter. The domed head also acts as a shield fromany ends on fasteners that couldpotentially be dangerous such as sharpbolt threads
APPLICATIONS Designed to enable rotational or linear movement in a device, bearings are machine elements that are used to reduce friction between moving parts and to enhance the speed andefficiency of a system. Applications include: Aviation Cargo Systems Aerospace Wing Actuators A.T.M & Card Readers Commercial Blenders & Dental Hand Tools. Electrical Motors.
APPLICATIONS A Shaft key is a piece of metal used to connecta rotating machine element to the shaft. Ashaft key prevents a relative rotation betweenthe two parts and may enable torquetransmission to occur. Applications include thefollowing: light-duty or low powertransmission, Machine tool, heavy-dutyapplication, for preventing rotation of gearsand pulleys on the shaft.
APPLICATIONS Spring washers are locking washers thatare used when there is a need toprevent a fastener from loosening as aresult of vibration. They are also oftencalled split lock or split ring washers.
APPLICATIONS Split washers can prevent bolts fromloosening due to vibrations. As a machineor piece of equipment vibrates, the split washer will push back into it. Split washersare ideal for applications involvingvibrations because they prevent the boltswith which they are used from loosening
