Supplier's note

  1. Technical Breakthroughs:

    • Galvanized Surface: Triple the corrosion resistance of uncoated steel, extending lifespan in marine or industrial settings.
    • Spring Steel Core: 20% higher tensile strength than traditional pins, enabling heavier load handling.
    • Dual-Layer Locking (Pro Model): Prevents loosening under extreme vibrations, critical for aerospace or heavy machinery.
  2. Version Selection Guidance:

    • Base Model: Ideal for general industrial use (e.g., securing bolts in HVAC systems).
    • Advanced Model: Suited for moderate-stress applications (e.g., automotive suspension components).
    • Pro Model: Required for high-vibration or corrosive environments (e.g., offshore drilling equipment).

*Pro Model exceeds industry benchmarks by 30% in load capacity, validated against ISO 13692 standards.
