Push-On Fasteners: Self Aligning
This development of the standard Starlock Push-on Fastener is particularly useful for applications where the face of the fastener must be square to the axis of the shaft. This is achieved by the self aligning legs on the fastener which also give increased resistance to non-axial loads which may be transmitted from the adjacent part i.e. wheel to axle assembly.
Only available in spring steel, self aligning uncapped fasteners can be supplied in the following Chrome 6 free finishes.
- Blue and varnish finish for imperial sizes (BV Finish)
- Bronze and varnish finish for metric sizes (BV Finish)
- Mechanical zinc tin plate & clear trivalent passivation (DT Finish)
A variety of cap styles and materials are available which are indicated in the table below:- Stainless Steel (S) - Aluminium (K) - Zinc Plated Mild Steel (A) - Nylon (N)
For the outside diameter of cap dimension E, depth of penetration of shaft into cap dimension F, and height G, reference should be made to the charts for dome caps, axle caps, deep axle caps and nylon caps.
