Nuts made of GRP material - Electrically insulating, lightweight and stable
Nuts made of glass fiber reinforced plastics (GRP) offer an ideal combination of electrical insulation, mechanical stability and lightweight construction. Megatron AG supplies these nuts in square and hexagonal designs, tailored to the requirements of demanding industrial applications.
Thanks to their specific material properties, these nuts are predestined for use in areas where electrical insulation of screw connections is required or where freedom from metal is required, such as in induction applications. They also offer thermal insulation and are significantly lighter than conventional steel nuts, which reduces the design weight and makes handling easier.
High-performance materials for GRP nuts
Overview of compatible materials
| Material | Properties | Typical applications |
|---|---|---|
DOGLAS | Glass fiber-reinforced thermosetting plastics (GRP) based on polyester, epoxy and other resin systems, high mechanical strength and electrical insulation | Applications with electrical insulation and metal-free screw connections, ideal for induction environments |
Applications in practice
Nuts made of GRP material from Megatron AG are used in particular for
Thermal insulation: Avoidance of thermal bridges at screw connections in thermally sensitive areas.
Electrical insulation: Ensuring insulation in systems and machines to prevent flashovers and sparking.
Induction applications: Metal-free fixing solutions in environments with electromagnetic fields.
