The new “ABFT” nut design is for lighter load OEM applications where smooth movement and low drag torque for axial loads up to  4.5kg are required. The main body of the nut utilises the latest technology in injection moulding techniques to produce the structural strength.

Stationary Control Adjustable Drive from TB Wood’s require no lubrication.  Utilising, patented locking collars which reliably clamp all movable parts securely in place, eliminates relative motion between sheave parts as well as freezing and sticking from fretting corrosion.

The Spring Challenge.. This application was for a constant force compression spring to connect two pipeline "PIGS" together.
