A spring nut is a fastener with a built-in spring that provides continuous clamping force after assembly, thereby preventing loosening due to vibration or dynamic loading. These nuts are usually made of metal, and the internal spring element can be a metal spring or a spring made of a synthetic material such as nylon.
Carbon Steel: Typically used for general applications. Stainless Steel: For environments where corrosion resistance is required. Alloy Steels: Used in applications requiring high strength or high temperature resistance.
Advantage:
Automatic Compensation: The built-in spring automatically compensates for small gaps caused by vibration or thermal expansion and contraction, ensuring a consistently tight connection. Simplified Installation: Spring nuts are designed to simplify installation and maintenance, reducing labor costs and increasing efficiency. Increased safety: By reducing the risk of failure due to loosening, spring nuts increase the safety of equipment operation. Reusable: Spring nuts can be disassembled and reassembled many times and still maintain good tightness, reducing wasted resources. Green: Some of the new spring nuts are made of environmentally friendly materials, in line with the concept of sustainable development.
