Description
APPLICATION AREA
By using UMETA locking plugs with self-forming thread (SFT / SFG) you effectively safe the thread-cutting process in the borehole.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
The special thread angle and the specific hardness level allow these plugs to be driven and screwed into boreholes without prior thread cutting. Thus, the thread of the grease nipple forms ist counterhead. Later, the plug can easily be screwed out and be replaced by a standard locking plug. The exact size of the core hole depends on the material and must be determined by mounting tests. The consistency of the receiving material is decisive. The standard gauge for the installation bore diameter of 0.4-0.5 mm below nominal width have proved in daily use.
