RETENTION KNOB/PULL STUD AND SOCKET FACTS
Retention Knobs and Pull Studs can be tightened uniformly with the use of a torque
wrench and a socket. This gives the exact tightness that the manufacturer's specifications
require.
Retention Knob/Pull Stud Sockets aid in the installation and removal of Retention Knobs
or Pull Studs. By using a Socket and a Torque Wrench the ideal tightness is achieved,
without rounding off the Retention Knob or Pull Stud corners. Sockets are designed
to work when flats are up to .020 under Wrench Size Max.
Warning: Open end wrenches or crescent wrenches can slip off the Retention Knob
or Pull Stud and result in the rounding off of corners and damage to the Retention
Knob or Pull Stud.
Safety note: An open end wrench or crescent wrenches can slip off the Retention
Knob or Pull Stud and injure the operator.
Installation Information: Install Retention Knobs and Pull Studs to Manufacturer's
torque specifications using a torque wrench. Improper installation may result in loose
knobs if under tightened, or knobs which crack or break if over tightened. Torque (FT-LBS.)
specifications supplied with Sockets.
Note: Some Retention Knobs
and Pull Studs have mixed standards. Check the shoulder diameter and wrench sizes carefully
when selecting a socket to fit your requirements.  |
