A Powerful Connection – item's Universal Fastening Set 8 St
With
the launch of its Universal Fastening Set 8 St, item has rounded off the top end
of the product range of high-strength profile joints: this version of the
popular Universal Fastening Set - but made of steel - enables users to achieve
far greater construction strengths. Load changes, temperature changes and
environmental influences will not have a negative effect on the pretensioning
force of the joint – the connection retains its original high strength.
The new Universal Fastening Set is made from stainless steel
and is manufactured in a sophisticated fine casting process which guarantees a
high degree of dimensional accuracy and excellent material properties to the
most demanding quality standards. As expected, the functionality of the original
version remains unchanged. Neither the profile preparation nor the handling of
the Universal Fastening Set needs to be modified.
For outdoor applications and in clean rooms, the Universal
Fastening Set 8 St is also available as a completely stainless steel version. In
that version, both the Fastening Element itself and the screw and T-Slot Nut are
made of stainless steel. In this respect, the new profile connectors can be
considered the latest highlight in the item MB Building Kit System.
