Wing Nuts from Fabory for securing without tools
Wing nuts are distinctive fasteners designed for easy manual handling, featuring "wings" that allow hand tightening without tools. They are crafted for frequent adjustments or removal, making them ideal for applications requiring quick disassembly or reassembly without specialized equipment.
These nuts are primarily used in settings where speed and ease of handling are paramount, such as theatrical set designs, home furniture assembly, and DIY projects. They are also favoured in mechanical situations where tools are inconvenient or impractical, offering user-friendly functionality for temporary installations.
When choosing wing nuts, consider the material (stainless steel, brass, plastic), size (ranging from M3 to M24), standards compliance (DIN 313 and DIN 315), and surface treatment (options like zinc or nickel plating for enhanced corrosion resistance). These factors ensure the right fit for various applications and environments.
