■ NOTE
・Number of knurling: Two on the KLH3.3-M2-4.1
・Please contact us if you need Pb-free material for environmental reasons.
・Pilot hole diameters are for reference only. The diameter should be determined by testing before use.
・Please contact us about the knurling design when Knife Locks are used for polycarbonate (PC) and other materials which are sensitive to residual stress.
・The diameter of the pilot hole for the mounting object should be smaller than the outer diameter of the insert (Dimension D).
・When inserts are tightened by screws, choose the screw length so that screws do not reach the bottom of insert pilot holes.
・Be careful when using a Knife Lock with a thermo-setting resin. threading the part will be tight, depending on the diameter of the pilot hole that is selected.
・The specifications are subject to change without notice.
・Please contact us if you have any other questions.
