A clamp nut, also known as a lock nut or compression nut, is a fastener used to provide a strong clamping function. It is typically used in applications that require a strong hold and are not easily loosened. Clamp nuts can be installed and removed with bolts, screws or special tools.
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:
Strong Clamping: Clamping nuts are designed to provide a strong clamping force to ensure a stable connection. Easy to install: Some clamping nuts, such as EziTite® hydraulic clamping nuts, can be hydraulically installed simply, efficiently and safely. Increased safety: Reducing the risk of loosening due to vibration or torque increases the safety of equipment operation. Reduced maintenance: Maintenance costs and downtime are reduced by minimizing failures due to loosening. Suitable for a wide range of environments: including applications with high vibration or torque stress and hard-to-reach nut locations.
Scope of Application
Machinery and fixtures: used to secure mechanical parts and fixture systems. Automation equipment: used in automated production lines to ensure the precise connection and fixing of components. Building structures: used in building projects to ensure the stability and safety of structural components. Pressure sensors: for the direct mounting of pressure sensors such as floating clamping nuts according to DIN 314 for pressure sensors types 601C and 603C .
