NEW CLAMPING NUT PROVIDES CLAMPING FORCES WITH MINIMUM TORQUE
Hilma‘s new hydraulic-mechanical clamping nut is designed especially for clamping dies on rolling bolsters, press beds and slides. It is useful on machine tool beds when the available space is limited and maximum clamping force is required, or when a hydraulic unit or hoses to clamps is unavailable or not practical.

Hilma's new hydraulic-mechanical clamping nut is designed especially for clamping dies on rolling bolsters, press beds and slides. It is useful on machine tool beds when the available space is limited and maximum clamping force is required, or when a hydraulic unit or hoses to clamps is unavailable or not practical.
The new clamping nut provides high clamping forces with minimal torque. The t-bolt extends through the clamping nut, and the part is very adaptable to different clamping heights and tolerances. Suitable for retrofitting, the clamping nut provides easy manual clamping and unclamping.
The part comes in three sizes, with clamping forces ranging from 13,400 to 33,700 lb. Safety features include a built-in preload indicator. For more, contact the Hilma Div. of Carr Lane Roemheld Mfg.
