Tension screws provide controlled axial preload to secure joints and maintain alignment in mechanical assemblies. They are designed to deliver repeatable tension with reliable performance under load and vibration. Key benefits - Precise preload control to keep components firmly clamped - Reduces loosening from vibration and dynamic loading - Simple installation with straightforward adjustment - Improves repeatable assembly quality across cycles What it does - Converts applied torque into axial tension to stabilize joints - Works with standard threaded holes and compatible mounting configurations - Enables consistent clamping force across multiple assemblies Compatibility and options - Available in a range of sizes to fit common hole sizes and thread standards - Material options typically include steel and stainless steel variants - Finishes and heat treatments offered to suit environment and durability needs Size and material notes - Multiple size variants allow selection that matches the specific joint and load requirements - Material choices provide a balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance Performance considerations - Designed for reliable clamping under typical shop and factory conditions - Maintains preload over time to prevent loosening and misalignment Use scenarios - Securing precision components in a milling or machining setup where stable preload is essential for accuracy - Fastening motor mounts or drill rigs in equipment subject to vibration and periodic loading - Tightening linkage assemblies in jigs and fixtures to preserve alignment through repeated cycles
