RICON® S – connectors for high capacity standard connections
RICON® S – connectors for high capacity standard connections
* Charact. load carrying capacity F2,Rk in insertion direction applies only to the use of original KNAPP® CS-screws according to ETA 10/0189 (2019/10/11).
VS = welded collar bolt, for highest load capacities
EK = adjustable screw collar bolt, for tolerance adjustment
GK = spring-loaded collar bolt for special assembly requirements
VK = screwed collar bolt, for moderate charge capacities
Note: The required number of screws for the connector RICON®S should be based on previously determined characteristic values of loads. You can verify this using our user-friendly pre-dimensioning tool, or please contact our technical support team.
