What is the inch nut?

Inch of the matrix is ​​a type of fasteners that are used to create mechanical connections between mating to ensure that they are securely held together. They are tightened using thumb and fingers and do not require the use of tools, improving ease and shortening the installation time. The thumb matrix is ​​an option when using the tool is not possible to reduce space or other reasons. They also provide decorative and finished appearance in applications where the fasteners are external and can be seen. The bolt or the outer threaded part consists of a cylindrical shaft with healing grooves that allow the nut to sink along the shaft as it turned. The thumb nuts usually have a cylindrical shape and a central opening with the same inner fiber as a screw and a rough outer grip for tightening. Thetype and size selected for a particular application depend on several factors. They may include environment, external appearance, available space, electrical properties and more. Because the thumb matrix isFor manually tightened, they are generally smaller in size and are not used for large or heavy mechanical fastening applications.

The common type of inch matrix has a larger part of the diameter with shifted or a ribbed area to ensure grip. Some are winged, with two or more flat sections, which are perpendicular to the cylindrical part to provide larger surfaces for tightening. Flat sections are usually roughened with knurl or other coarse texture for improved finger grip.

inch nuts come in various materials, including steel, stainless steel or brass for corrosion resistance; Metal alloys for high -fixed applications; and plastic. Factors when choosing the right thumb material are weight, corrosion resistance, exposure to vibrations and the ability to resist solvents such as oil oils and fats. The thumb plastic nuts are usually used in electrical applications for SVthe properties of electrical resistance.

The

connectors are commonly used in Aerospace, Computer, Consumer Electronics and Telecommunication Equipment. The nuts are often used to secure panels, components or sub -sewers that need to be easily removed. They are also used in many electrical and electronic applications such as lighting and assembly of electric hardware inside the electric panels. Other examples include plumbing and automobile applications where a key or other tool can not be used to limit space.
