Superbolt® Flexnuts

REACTIVE SIDE SOLUTIONS

Superbolt developed the Flexnut for through-hole applications. Flexnuts bring the advantages of MJT-type elasticity to the reactive side of the joint.
Flexnuts are designed to flex out at the bottom and flex in toward the top of the nut. This distributes the bolt load along many threads, adds elasticity, and prevents stress concentrations in the first few threads.
Flexnuts are reactive nuts, designed to be applied opposite Superbolt tensioners. They are never torqued directly to achieve preload.
