Butterfly nut CTD.48 P-M5x10-3-C9 Z070574

Torque-limiting butterfly nut – precision and protection

The CTD.48 P-M5x10-3-C9 butterfly nut is a closing element designed for applications where controlled tightening torque is crucial. Made of high-quality polyamide-based technopolymer in combination with a steel threaded pin, it ensures durability and reliable operation. This is an ideal solution where excessive force could damage the mounted components – especially in precision devices and tooling.

Design and application

This nut operates on the principle of a disengaging mechanism, similar to a torque wrench. Once the defined tightening torque (3 Nm in this case) is reached, a characteristic “click” occurs, signaling the end of the process. This allows for repeatable and safe mounting of components, eliminating the risk of damage. The design with a threaded pin (M5x10) facilitates assembly and disassembly, and the possibility of use in critical locations makes it a versatile connecting element.

Advantages and benefits

• Protection against damage: The torque-limiting mechanism protects delicate components from overload and damage. This is particularly important in precision devices and tooling.
• Repeatability: Ensures a constant and controlled tightening torque every time, guaranteeing connection reliability.
• Easy installation: The M5x10 threaded pin facilitates quick and convenient assembly and disassembly of the nut.
• Durability: Made of polyamide and nickel-plated steel, it provides corrosion resistance and long-term use.
• Convenience: A characteristic “click” sound indicates that the correct tightening torque has been reached, eliminating the need for additional measuring tools.
• Aesthetics: Available in black or orange (orange makes it easier to identify the clamping element).
• Versatility: Suitable for mounting components in various types of tooling and in places requiring precise control of tightening force.
