We're back for some #FridayFun with another amusing construction and engineering phrase... ...have you heard of a 'grease nipple'? It's a type of fitting attached to bearings, or other mechanisms that need internal lubrication (ahem!), often in areas that are hard to reach. Within a grease nipple, there is a small ball bearing on a spring, which is compressed when lubricant is pushed through via a grease gun. This acts as a valve to allow grease through, without allowing it to double-back or leak out. Grease nipple's are found in KR Group's forklifts, diggers and cranes. Tune in on 20 September for the last instalment in the series!

Boring holes into the earth creates high stress grinding and gouging abrasion with every rotation. Early methods of protection were welding square mild steel bars onto the barrel, then hand welding hardfacing for protection. This was labor intensive and the effectiveness was questionable. By comparison, JADCO HardGuard blocks are easy to install, providing immediate wear protection for the sides exposed to wear. https://lnkd.in/gETr3A3U

"There is NO need to perform a Shear Test"...... Yet, our construction testing customers kept being asked to perform the test by Engineers. Engineers who : 1. Wanted to verify with the performance data of the anchor. 2. Couldn't find any performance data available in shear. 3. Couldn't find any data available for the substrate into which they were fixing. 4. Wanted to check it because it is a safety critical application. Fixing substrates vary in age, condition and performance....... so sometimes its good to do a spot of testing to make sure. We got asked every few months for a shear test accessory to fit our load cell. So finally, its here a new accessory for the Staht family and in stock. Perform the shear test and measure it with Staht Connect. 44 (0) 121 817 0620 sales@staht.com #fallprotection #workatheight #fixings #fasteners #scaffolding #testing #ndttesting #pulltesting #tensiletesting #scaffolding #inspection #digital #gauge #sheartest #distribution #lifting #liftinginspection #LEEA #concrete #brick #substrate #ropeaccess #swage #brand #marketing #brandupdate #logo

When it comes to securing components in mechanical assemblies or structural applications, flange nuts are a vital component. They combine the functionality of a standard nut with a built-in flange that distributes the load and provides a larger bearing surface. #flangenuts #typesofflangenuts 🌍 https://buff.ly/3ZprhS0
