Locknut type 116 PG 9 2043092

OBO BETTERMANN type 116 PG 9 locknut is an element used for the safe and durable mounting of cables in electrical installations. Made of polystyrene, it provides reliable protection against disconnection of threaded connections. This is particularly important in places exposed to vibrations or movement.

Construction and material:

The nut is designed according to DIN 46320 and has a PG thread according to DIN 40430. The polystyrene used is characterized by good mechanical strength and impact resistance, which translates into a long product life. Additionally, the material is halogen-free, which increases safety, especially in public buildings. The gray color makes it easier to identify and integrate with other installation elements.

Application and installation:

The locknut finds wide application in combination with cable glands and connectors, providing a tight and secure connection of the cable to the device or installation box. Installation is simple and intuitive - just tighten the nut by hand or with a suitable tool. However, it is important to tighten moderately to avoid stress cracks characteristic of polystyrene.

Key features:

• Safety: Halogen-free material minimizes the risk of toxic gas formation in the event of a fire.
• Durability: Impact resistance guarantees long-term use even in difficult conditions.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of DIN 46320 and DIN 40430, ensuring compatibility with other electrical installation elements.
• Easy installation: Simple construction allows for quick and trouble-free installation.
• Versatility: Designed for use with cables with a diameter corresponding to PG 9 size.
• Reinforcement: Lack of glass fiber reinforcement makes the nut lightweight and easy to process, but requires careful tightening.
