Application:A manufacturer of toggle switches requested that SPIROL manufacture a cost-effective, custom Hex Panel Nut for their European market. This large, special Machined Nut had a 15mm wrench size and a M13 thread.
Solution:SPIROL Engineering recommended the use of a standard SPIROL Series H40 Hex Panel Nut body with a special M13 thread.
SPIROL’s standard Panel Nut has a .625” wrench size, converting to approximately 15.9mm across the flats versus the originally requested 15mm wrench size. The customer was early enough in the design stage to change to the standard .625” wrench size. By using the standard wrench size, SPIROL was able to machine the Nut out of commercially available raw material and standard tooling.
The customer collaborated with SPIROL on the production timing of the part such that SPIROL was able to manufacture the Nut with the custom M13 thread right after the production of the standard Panel Nut on the multi-spindle machine for a total cost savings of 95%!

APPLICATION ENGINEERINGIN PRACTICE
Machined Hex Nut in Wheel Chair
Application:A customer contacted SPIROL with an axle-alignment problem that they were having with a wheel chair. The application was a solid axle passing through the center hub of a wheel. The axles are cambered, causing extra stress for nuts that are not square to the threaded bolt. The conventional stamped nut was causing deflection in the axle when tightened
due to the threads of the nut not being formed perpendicular to the faces of the nut. This deflection was causing poor tracking.
Solution: SPIROL’s solution was a Machined Hex Nut manufactured to
the same specifications, but machined in one step from raw material rather than stamped and then threaded. SPIROL’s manufacturing methods allow for precise control of the cutting tools responsible for the final geometry of the product. In this case, threads running perpendicular to the faces of the nut were a major performance requirement. To the astonishment of the customer, SPIROL provided a Precision Machined Hex Nut for a price comparable to the price they were paying for a lower-performance product.
