What makes the CONNEX principle unique? The answer lies in the forces that act when the CONNEX tensioning element is pressed in. The first is the spring force that occurs in the elastic area of the hardened material when it is compressed. The second is the tangential force, which comes from the offset toothed slot and acts radially. The combination of these two forces creates higher surface pressure between the CONNEX tensioning element and the housing.
The advantages of the CONNEX toothed slot:
- increased tensioning force
- a more secure fit
- good roundness at the outer diameter
- virtually closed bearing surfaces at the inner diameter
- easy assembly and disassembly
We spring into action.
