Tightening bolted connections with ITH Tension Nuts
- Easy subsitution of existing standard nuts
Achieving the required projecting thread
- Using the hydraulic tensioning method (using ITH Bolt Tensioning Cylinders), a certain projecting thread above the nut is required
- If this projecting thread is not available the ITH Tension Nuts extend the thread to its required length. Existing bolts do not have to be replaced.When retrofitting bolt connections to hydraulic tensioning
Design
- Three main components, based on the differntial thread principle
Applications
- High temperature areas
- Foundation bolts (anchor rods)
can easily be retrofitted to hydraulic tensioning
