DIC Fasteners is an Anchor Nuts Exporter in various countries, which are used for multipurpose applications. We can provide a wide range of anchor nuts in standard and non-standard sizes and materials. We can fulfill the requirements with the availability of multiple fasteners, including anchor nuts.
An anchor nut is a hardware fastener with a threaded hole through it that is secured to a work surface mainly by rivets or screws. Anchor nuts, also known as plate nuts, are self-locking nuts used in limited space or congested areas. Anchor nuts can be in two wings, three wings, four wings, and in any customized type and shape.
An anchor nut can also be welded onto the work surface, although this is not appropriate for some high-stress applications like aerospace. To fasten an anchor nut with rivets, a screw distributes stress across two points instead of concentrating it on a single location.
The Anchor nut is a clamp nut that attaches standard steel tie rods and bars in concrete. These specially designed nuts provide solid, vibration–proof threads in thin-walled material and can be fitted quickly. These nuts can be able to move slightly.
How does it work:
Anchor nuts work by supporting a threaded rod from the backside. These nuts feature a threaded hole that is able to move around slightly. You can attach a bolt or similar thread rod to an anchor nut.
Anchor nuts are easy to use than fixed anchor nuts. They do not require perfect placement. We can connect thread rods to anchor nuts even if they are off-center. All anchor nuts have an in-built nut that is able to move slightly. Therefore you can move the in-built nut to align it with a threaded rod.
Types of Anchor nuts:
Non-rotating plates: These are used where no misalignment is tolerated. Sometimes bolts may be identified with regular-height nuts to use complete bolt tensile strength. Low-height and lightweight designs can be selected for shear applications. Small-scale designs are available for close-clearance installations.
Floating plate: Floating plate nuts are used where bolt-hole misalignment happens in assemblies. Tolerances between holes can also affect adjustment. Oversize retainer holes facilitate assembly.
Floating, replaceable-element plate nuts: These multiple-piece units allow the nut element to be removed and replaced without disturbing the permanently connected retainer. These are usually high-performance nuts and are generally specified for repeated use.
