Clampnut ? Aluminum Alloy
Whittet-Higgins one-piece lightweight Clampnut threaded shaft collar for bearing & power transmission applications are slit from outside diameter to bore with the two sides of the slit are joined by a hardened alloy socket head screw, allowing users to pull together the two sides of the locknut, reducing the overall thread diameter and securely fastening the Clampnut to the shaft or spindle threads
Benefits:
--Manufactured from aluminum alloy for reduced weight
--Self-Locking
--Easier and faster to install than traditional locknut & lockwasher
--Allows infinite adjustment and preloading
--Designed for low speed applications where dynamic balance is not required
--Designed to prevent assemblies from loosening by forces of vibration, shock-loading, and torque
--Tangent (X axis) to shaft adjustment and locking of retaining device
--Eliminates expensive cutting of keyway
--Manufactured in USA
--RoHS Compliant
Applications:
--Lower speed assemblies where dynamic balance is not required
--Where balanced assembly not required
--Linear ball screws and linear actuators
--Mining, mineral extraction, and drilling operations
--Slow speed rolls in processing equipment
--Numerous other machinery and equipment applications
