Jergens, Inc. Sets the Standard with the Introduction of the Spinner-Grip™ Flange Locking Bolt (14137)
Jergens, Inc. introduces the highly innovative, customized Spinner-Grip™ Flange Locking Bolt. Unlike most widely used bolts on the market, the Spinner-Grip Flange Locking Bolt has a conical flange design that locks the bolt to the part without the need for a lock washer. Many standard serrated flange bolts will cut into the part’s surface paint, plating, or finish, causing rust under the bolt. Yet, the Spinner-Grip bolts do not have serrations that will mar the surface or plating of parts. In addition, the Spinner-Grip Locking Bolt can be easily uninstalled and reused without reapplication of locking patches or additional hardware.

Security Safety Covers Protect CNC Tooling (14104)
Huot’s new safety tool covers reduce industrial espionage of CNC tooling and manufacturing protocol. They provide an extra measure of security for propriety CNC tooling and confidential manufacturing processes. The patent pending CNC safety covers allow the operator to select the correct tooling while visitors or personnel are touring non-secured manufacturing areas. For tooling identification, covers can be written on with a dry erase marker.

Pallet Rack Safety: Don't Let Your Workers Become Statistics (13301)
Statistics on forklift injuries are staggering, making pallet rack safety a top concern at plants, warehouses, and distribution centers. Every year, forklift accidents account for thousands of serious injuries and dozens of deaths in industrial facilities--statistics show that 100 workers are killed and another 20,000 seriously injured yearly in such accidents. OSHA estimates that 95,000 workers suffer injuries involving powered industrial trucks yearly, resulting in lost work time, workers' compensation claims, and productivity losses.

Getting Reliability Right with Self Locking Threaded Fasteners (13290)
Now that manufacturers' products have advanced to the point where most consumers and contractors can no longer repair and maintain their own products due to sealed components and electronic complexity, reliability must be incorporated into the design. Toward this back to nuts and bolts effort, innovative self locking threaded fasteners such as Spiralock®, the first re-engineered thread form since WWII can help engineers limit warranty claims and potential liability while boosting profitability and customer satisfaction.

Warehouses Protect Pallet Racks and Personnel With New Safety Measures (13288)
In a warehouse or other storage facility, safety of both personnel and material must be the paramount concern. Every year, forklift accidents account for thousands of serious injuries and dozens of deaths in industrial facilities. Additionally, tens of thousands to millions of dollars are lost in material damage from fork truck collisions with other equipment, pallet racks, and merchandise. The safest move a facility can make is to institute a powerful one-two punch with the industry's most impact-resistant pallet rack, fortified with Column Core column reinforcement, and Steel Guard guardrails.

New High Resolution Bolt is a Smart Fit For Critical Industrial Applications (13285)
Critical bolted joints often require exacting tightening procedures to establish the optimum clamp load. While tightening by torque wrenching methods is quick and easy, extensive tests have shown that a given torque can produce tensions or clamp forces varying by as much as 5 to 1 depending on bolt plating, lubrication, thread condition, nut and washer material and seventy-one other variables according to a US Air Force study.

Elevators: the Next Home Appliance (13270)
With builders, architects and developers trying to squeeze ever more baby boomers into pricy urban and suburban areas, they've had to build up, not out to minimize the cost of increasingly scarce real estate. But as boomers age and two, three and four level units become the norm in many areas, particularly the coasts, the onus has been on building professionals to provide safe, convenient access to all levels of dwelling. Stairs, long known as one of the most dangerous areas in the home due to falling hazard, can be an insurmountable barrier to the mobility challenged that can shut out potential buyers.
