Y Loc Radial Lobe Tri-Knobs: Female Threads

Y Loc®Tri-knobs feature a unique design which allows them to be either tightened (T) or released (R) without excessive use of force. The striations on the lobes are designed to provide maximum purchase when either tightening or releasing a thread, and are ideally suited for use in many applications. The opposing curves on the lobes will fit the hand perfectly and are aesthetically pleasing. Either Y Loc®configuration can be used for everyday applications, but specific features make them ideal for more specialised use, including:- Wet or underwater environments, where the Tri-knob needs to be frequently released (R configuration). Specialised applications where locking is important, without the risk of accidental loosening (T configuration). An alternative option is also available with a 3mm flange covering the 55mm OD of the radial lobes. This is aimed primarily at push-pull applications or for ease of spring compression. This Y Loc® option (not illustrated) is produced in both T and R configurations.
