Potential Equaliser Nut

Description

The Potential Equaliser Nut is a specialized fastener engineered for industrial aluminum extrusion systems. It ensures a secure mechanical joint while establishing a reliable electrical ground by penetrating the aluminum’s non‑conductive oxide layer. This enables static dissipation and potential equalization across the structure, making it essential in applications where grounding and ESD protection are critical. Compatible with standard T‑slot profiles, the nut is widely used in factory automation, electronics manufacturing, conveyor systems, and industrial framing.

1. Dual Functionality: Provides strong mechanical fastening and effective electrical bonding in one component.
2. Grounding Performance: Penetrates the aluminum oxide layer to ensure continuous static conduction and potential equalization.
3. Robust Design: Made of zinc alloy or nickel‑plated steel for durability and high conductivity.
4. Easy Installation: T‑shaped or preset design allows quick insertion and locking into profile grooves.
5. Wide Compatibility: Designed for common slot widths (e.g., 8mm, 10mm) and thread sizes (M4, M5).
6. Safety Enhancement: Reduces electrostatic discharge (ESD) risks and improves overall system grounding.
7. Modular Integration: Part of a complete aluminum framing ecosystem, compatible with bolts, connectors, and mounting accessories.
