What Is The Function Of A Wing Nut?
It is well known that nuts and bolts are small parts that play a role in fastening and connecting when using fixing tools. They have the characteristics of easy installation, integrity, no gasket, and convenient disassembly. The main materials used for nuts are carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, and alloys. Among the various types of nuts, the wing nut is extremely convenient to use due to its unique shape – a design with a protruding head similar to a butterfly.
So, what is the function of this small wing nut? As a professional fastener manufacturer, Xinchi is very willing to introduce the application scenarios of wing nuts to everyone.
The Features of Wing Nuts
Unlike the materials commonly used for regular nuts, the main plastic material of butterfly screws is nylon 6/6. This special material endows butterfly nuts with unique application fields. Butterfly bolts have excellent properties, including insulation, non-magnetism, corrosion resistance, aesthetics, and rust resistance. Modified engineering plastics, with their strength and impact resistance comparable to metals, are widely used. The plastic screws, commonly known as nylon screws, have their mechanical properties significantly enhanced after adding 30% glass fiber, far surpassing ordinary nylon.
The Application of Wing Nuts
The materials used for butterfly plastic bolts are becoming increasingly diverse, their performance is constantly improving, and their application fields are also expanding. They are mainly concentrated in the following eight areas:
- Medical device industry (insulation, non-magnetism, environmental friendliness, anti-interference, making medical equipment safer to use)
- Wind power and the electricity industry (isolation and insulation of circuit PCB boards in enclosures)
- Aerospace industry (insulation and anti-interference on electronic equipment)
- Office equipment industry (rust-free, aesthetically pleasing, and practical)
- Petrochemical industry (high temperature resistance, chemical resistance, corrosion resistance, extending equipment lifespan)
- Electronics industry (insulation, anti-interference, lightweight)
- Telecommunications industry (insulation, non-magnetism, safety)
- Marine industry (acid resistance, alkali resistance, corrosion resistance, extending service life)
Butterfly screws come in a complete range of specifications and sizes to meet the needs of different occasions.
