Recommended interference fit is .1 to .15mm larger than the receiving hole. To adjust the Friction Puller, rotate the screw clockwise and measure bulge to achieve the proper fit.

Further adjustments can be performed with 1/4 turn increments, lining up the reference arrows on the fastener to the resin.

APPLICATION GUIDELINES

  • Designed to replace shoulder bolts, the Friction Pullers initiate movement and utilize friction at a particular setting to release the plate when travel limits are reached.
  • For mold maintenance, before removing the mold from the press, rotate the screw counter-clockwise 3/4 turn. This will allow easy separation of plates.
  • Maximum operating temperature is 300°F (150°C).
  • Fastener includes Nylok® patch for secure installation.
  • The hemisphere is plated for additional lubricity during adjustments.
  • Friction Pullers are self-venting. Additional venting not required when using blind holes.
  • Replacement items are available. Contact Customer Service for more information.
