2. Spring pin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_pin

   A spring pin (also called tension pin or roll pin) is a mechanical fastener that secures the position of two or more parts of a machine relative to each other. Spring pins have a body diameter which is larger than the diameter of the hole they are intended for, and a chamfer on either one or both ends to facilitate starting the pin into the hole.

3. Bushing (electrical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushing_(electrical)

   In electric power, a bushing is a hollow electrical insulator that allows an electrical conductor to pass safely through a conducting barrier such as the case of a transformer or circuit breaker without making electrical contact with it. Bushings are typically made from porcelain, though other insulating materials are also used.

4. Threaded insert - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threaded_insert

   TIME-SERT insert. A threaded insert, also known as a threaded bushing, is a fastener element that is inserted into an object to add a threaded hole. [1] They may be used to repair a stripped threaded hole, provide a durable threaded hole in a soft material, place a thread on a material too thin to accept it, mold or cast threads into a work piece thereby eliminating a machining operation, or ...

5. Bushing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushing

   Bushing (bearing), a type of plain bearing; Bushing (electrical), an insulated device that allows a conductor to pass through a grounded conducting barrier; Bushing (isolator), a mechanical device used to reduce vibrational energy transfer between two parts; Drill bushing, a tool used to guide the placement of a hole when drilling in a workpiece

6. Spring (device) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_(device)

   The most common application is the retracting steel tape rule. [12] Progressive rate coil springs A coil spring with a variable rate, usually achieved by having unequal distance between turns so that as the spring is compressed one or more coils rests against its neighbour. Rubber band A tension spring where energy is stored by stretching the ...

7. Tension member - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tension_member

   A tension member is a structural element designed to carry loads primarily through tensile forces, meaning it is subjected to stretching rather than compression or bending. These members are integral components in engineering and architectural structures, such as trusses , bridges , towers, and suspension systems, where they provide stability ...
