Bosch Rexroth AG introduces tensioning connectors. The product can be inserted or swiveled into grooves without profile machining, as well as retrofitted into existing constructions, saving assembly time and reducing cost.
Adapted for profiles with 8-mm and 10-mm grooves, the connectors work with all profile cross sections available in the company’s Basic Mechanical Elements modular system and require only one tool. The product is also available in ESD-compatible versions.
The connectors are reported to withstand bending loads up to 35 Nm and 110 Nm, as well as sliding forces of maximum 1,000 N and 3,500 N.
