A pillow block bearing (or plummer block) is a mounting used to support a rotating shaft with the use of bearings and various accessories. The assembly consists of a mounting block which houses a bearing. [1] The block is mounted to a foundation, and a shaft is inserted, allowing the inner part of the bearing/shaft to rotate. [1]
A Philidas nut [5] is a locknut with one or more slots cut laterally in the reduced-diameter circular top [10] for less than half the diameter, the metal above the slot(s) being deformed downwards so that over the last one or two turns, the thread for half the diameter is "axially depitched" or displaced from its normal position. As the nut is ...
Fasteners commonly used with piping are a stud bolt [25] with nuts (usually fully threaded, with two heavy, hexagonal nuts); a machine bolt and nut; or a powder-actuated tool (PAT) fastener (usually a nail or threaded stud, driven into concrete or masonry).
A split beam nut, also known as a split hex nut [1] or slotted beam nut, [2] is a locknut with slots cut in the top that separate the outside end into two [3] or more sections that are bent slightly inward, making the thread diameter undersized in the slotted portion.
A split nut is a nut that is split lengthwise into two pieces (opposed halves) so that its female thread may be opened and closed over the male thread of a bolt or leadscrew. [1] This allows the nut, when open, to move along the screw without the screw turning (or, vice versa, to allow the screw to pass through the nut without turning).
Keps nut (K-nut or washer nut) with a free-spinning washer. In the locknut form, this is a star-type lock washer. Plate nut; Polymer insert nut ; Security locknut All steel reusable nut for high vibration and harsh environments. Serrated face nut; Serrated flange nut; Speed nut (sheet metal nut or Tinnerman nut) Split beam nut (BINX nut [5])
A self-aligning nut, also known as a spherical nut [2] or leveling nut, is a type of nut used in applications where the fastener is not perpendicular to the surface to which the nut anchors. A flange nut is used inside a specially shaped dished-out washer. The device is commonly used in the aerospace industry.
