BOW NUT

Bow nuts are manufactured in the shape of a bow. These nuts are commonly used in mining, logging, oilfield, and marine sectors as a removable hanging nuts. These can also be used as a termination for Chain, Wire Rope and other assemble wherever compulsory. Smart Engineering and Fasteners are instrumental in providing excellent quality bow nuts to our clients. With an excellent safety factor, a range of working load limits, and an impressive ability to withstand repeated use, our high tensile steel bow nuts are available with a Whitworth-compatible thread form. Sitting alongside their metric siblings, these lifting fasteners form the backbone of many handling operations. Bow nuts are suitable for a variety of applications, including both loading and restraint – mainly because they are made from high tensile, rust-resistant steel. Available for uses including both loading and restraint, and often used within the construction or maritime industries, these bow nuts are only suitable for straight lifting.

These Bow nuts have a minimum breaking load that is five times greater than the safe working load limit to which they comply, they can handle heavy-duty loads quickly and efficiently. Our Bow nuts are available in a range of sizes and finishes, and we can provide specials to order. Bow Nuts are made from high tensile steel and are suitable for a variety of applications including both loading and restraint. These are also known as lifting eyes as they can allow for the safe handling, manipulation, and transport of heavy items in and around the workplace. Bow nuts are built for material handling scenarios in which the load will be applied vertically, rather than at an angle. They are also capable of forming part of a load restraint assembly, with these high tensile units offering similar benefits to their eye nut counterparts.
