Description
The Binx is an all metal prevailing torque type self-locking nut. The locking action is provided by two slots cut into the side of the nut which locally changes the pitch. When tightened onto a bolt this change in pitch results in the nut threads gripping the flanks of the bolt thread resulting in a locking action. One advantage of the Binx nut is that its height is no greater than a standard nut so that it can be used in confined spaces. The finish on the nuts is BZP (Bright Zinc Plating). The nut can be re-used and still maintain a locking action. To achieve the full locking action of the nut it is recommended that at least two bolt threads should protrude through the top of the nut.
An all-metal locking nut, which is also ideal in hot environments.
- The slot in the top of the nut squeezes down on the thread, and locks in place.
- Bright Zinc Plate (BZP) finish offers resistance to corrosion.
