E-LOCK NUT(anti-loose lock nut)

■E-LOCK design

●The E-LOCK is designed using a nut and friction ring. A recess is set on the top surface of the nut and a friction ring is placed along the lead corner of the screw. It is fixed to the top surface by caulking for integration.
●The friction ring has wings with a three-dimensional shape, which are placed along the lead angle of the screw. Uniform stress is generated in the two wings, and a stable prevailing torque is generated.
●This design prevents early dropout, even if the axial tightening force drops.
●The E-LOCK has superior heat- and cold-resistance since it is completely made of metal.
●The E-LOCK has a reasonable stable locking function and can withstand repeated usage with the three-dimensional structure that does not place extreme stress on the friction ring.

SMART-NUT (High-performance locking nut)

The SMART NUT achieves a strong locking effect and stable axial load capacity by attaching a friction ring (Point 2) to the top side of the nut and using a SURFACE HOLLOW structure (Point 1) that provides access to the screw holes on the lower side. The SMART NUT can be used for a wide variety of situations and the double-locking effect offers customers safety and peace of mind.
With a counter-sinking design on the bearing surface, the SMART NUT can be used in a wide range of environments as it enhances the gripping force of the axial load on the bolt, and integrates superior stability and the effects of preventing detachment with the use of a friction ring.

Easy to fasten plates at out of reach!

The patented clip-on nut with locking function

OSAKA FORMING’s clip nut, SMART CLIP, clips onto the edge of sheet metal. It is shaped like the letter S and is used in panel assembly, such as a sound proof wall on a high way. It is applicable at any out of reach location.

It consists of in-house quality parts: an S letter shaped clip + a spacer + SMART NUT (High-performance locking nut)

SMART NUT included

SMART CLIP is simple to clip-on, of cost saving structure without welding process and achieves a strong locking effect and stable axial load capacity by the included SMART NUT.
