Hexagon cross triangle teeth self-locking screws are a specialized type of fastener designed to provide a secure connection that resists loosening under vibration or dynamic loads. These screws are characterized by their hexagonal head and a special thread design that includes triangular teeth, which engage with the material being fastened to prevent loosening.
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:
Self-Locking Mechanism: The screws have a self-locking feature that prevents the connection from automatically loosening, which is essential in applications where vibration or movement could cause traditional screws to loosen over time.
Hexagonal Head: The hexagonal head provides a large bearing surface, which helps prevent the material from sinking or cracking, especially in softer materials. It also offers a professional and finished look when installed.
Triangle Teeth Design: The triangular teeth on the thread of the screw engage with the material being fastened, providing a mechanical lock that resists loosening.
Versatility in Materials: Available in materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, and other alloys, these screws can be used in a variety of environments and provide options based on corrosion resistance and strength requirements.
Scope of Application
Automotive Industry: Used in applications where high torque and vibration resistance are required, such as in engine assemblies or suspension systems.
Mechanical and Structural Applications: Ideal for machinery and structural assemblies where high torque and preload are required, and the connection must resist loosening under dynamic loads.
Aerospace and Marine: Used in aerospace and marine applications where lightweight, high-strength connections are required, and the ability to resist loosening in critical safety components is essential.
General Repair and Maintenance: Suitable for repair and maintenance tasks where a strong, reliable fastener is needed, and the ability to resist loosening is beneficial for long-term reliability.
