Knob REG.MOMENT MZD.50-P-M6x30 Z071219

Torque adjustment – precision and thread protection

The MZD knob is an innovative solution that combines the functionality of a knob with the ability to precisely adjust the tightening torque. This allows for safe and controlled fastening of elements, especially where there is a risk of thread damage or delicate components. It is a product of ELESA+GANTER, a renowned manufacturer of standard components for industry.

Construction and principle of operation

The key feature of the MZD knob is a built-in spring mechanism (ELESA patent) that allows you to set the desired torque in the range of 0.2 Nm to 1 Nm. This mechanism works similarly to a torque wrench – when the set value is reached, disengagement occurs and an audible “click” signals the end of tightening. Adjustment is made via a screw with a cylindrical head and a hexagonal socket, located under the knob cover. The set torque is read from the scale on the dial. This gives the user full control over the tightening process, minimizing the risk of damage. Durability tests confirm the reliability of the mechanism – even after 60,000 cycles, no significant changes in parameters were observed.

Applications and benefits

The MZD knob finds application in many industries and applications where precision and protection of delicate elements are required:

• Tooling: Mounting elements in various types of tooling, where accuracy is key.
• Glass industry: Tightening elements during glass processing, minimizing the risk of cracks and damage.
• Machine assembly: Mounting elements to machine housings with a plastic thread, protecting the thread from damage.
• Component protection: Protecting against damage to screwed, compressed or tensioned elements.
• General applications: everywhere where torque control and protection of delicate threaded connections are needed.

By choosing the MZD knob you gain:

• Precision: The ability to accurately set the tightening torque over a wide range.
• Safety: Protection of threads and delicate components from damage.
• Durability: Made of high-quality polyamide (PA) guarantees long-term operation.
• Economy: Attractive price compared to other solutions with torque adjustment available on the market.
• Versatility: Wide range of applications in various industries.

The knob has a metric thread size of 6 and a thread length of 30 mm, and its diameter is 47 mm. The material of construction is plastic - polyamide (PA). The color of the knob is specified as "Other". It has a threaded end for easy assembly and disassembly.
