Elesa retained clamping screws for equipment assembly
The new Elesa GN 653.2 retained screws with knurled grip knob provide an elegant solution to problems of mounting/demounting brackets, components, instruments etc. for rapid removal without the risk of losing the clamping knob in the process. This is a common requirement in Food and Medical industries - also for disability equipment, sealing and packaging applications, where the large easy to use knurled knob is beneficial to operators who need not worry about losing the clamping screw.
Available in black oxide steel or matt finish stainless, the GN 653.2 series clamps two items together by screwing through the component, through a relief section and into the threaded body. The underneath of the head then clamps onto the face of the component. If the assembly is then unscrewed the knob can't fall out and is retained for re-assembly at a later stage.
