  • Self-aligning thrust ring provides uniform 360º contact with mating tooling.
  • Adjustable pressure Amtec pumps grant controllable clamping force for F-Type & GX-Type Nuts.
  • Custom threaded to suit existing international standard specifications.
Reliability & Durability

Reliability & Durability

  • 300% longer service life with 4140 steel or aircraft aluminum nut bodies, precision thrust rings and dual durometer seals.
  • Sealing system allows up to 3 weeks in-service time without significant pressure drop.
  • Amtec’s leak proof F-Nipples (for grease) and GX-Nipples (for oil) made from high strength steel bodies with high-pressure check valves to maintain positive pressure retention.
