The new TDBL-nonut® from SFS Group Fastening Technology is a timesaving, innovative fastening solution for the construction market
The new TDBL- nonut® ensures cost-effective time savings when compared to the traditional nut and bolt.
Thanks to the TDBL- nonut®’s patented thread shape, under-head locking detail and trilobular geometry, the fastener can be swift and easily installed from one side, granting access to previously inaccessible or hard-to-reach spots.
This- along with its ETA-11/0191 approval- makes it ideal for working on steel construction where, for example, it can be employed for the attachment of steel sections such as brackets and support rails to enclosed steel sections where the use of standard nuts and bolts is impractical.
Potential applications include:
High-bay construction
Stage construction
Steel construction
Lightweight steel construction
Steel construction for PV systems
Shelving construction
Platform construction (Mezzanine)
Teardrop plate direct fastening with HO plate
The TDBL- nonut® is available in a variety of diameters and profiles
TDBL- nonut® are a case hardened, thread forming fastener available in a diameter of 8.6 mm with a length of 16 mm and in a diameter of 10.6 mm with lengths of 23, 30 and 50 mm as well as a new lower profile flatter head version of each, and joins SFS’s extensive range of fastening solutions.
Callum Thornton, product manager for SFS, commented: “The TDBL- nonut® offers a significant benefit to the industry, offering savings of time, money and inventory size. It is the ideal solution for the connection of statically loaded supporting structures, allowing users to work quickly, easily, and effectively.”
Further installation details and design values can be found within the assembly instructions, ETA and product literature.
