  2. Ratchet (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratchet_(device)

    A ratchet (occasionally spelled rachet) is a mechanical device that allows continuous linear or rotary motion in only one direction while preventing motion in the opposite direction. Ratchets are widely used in machinery and tools. The word ratchet is also used informally to refer to a ratcheting socket wrench.

  3. Gripple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gripple

    A Gripple wire joiner is a device used to join and tension wire, to terminate and suspend wires and wire ropes, and also to support false ceilings, cable baskets, and similar items. They are manufactured in Sheffield, England by Gripple Ltd. [1] The name derives from the fact the device both "grips" and "pulls" wire.

  4. Socket wrench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_wrench

    Socket set with ratchet (above), four hex sockets and a universal joint. A socket wrench (or socket spanner) is a type of spanner (or wrench [1] in North American English) that uses a closed socket format, rather than a typical open wrench/spanner to turn a fastener, typically in the form of a nut or bolt.

  5. Capstan equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capstan_equation

    A holding capstan is a ratchet device that can turn only in one direction; once a load is pulled into place in that direction, it can be held with a much smaller force. A powered capstan, also called a winch, rotates so that the applied tension is multiplied by the friction between rope and capstan.

  6. Multi-jackbolt tensioner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-jackbolt_tensioner

    Multi-jackbolt tensioners (MJTs), registered under the trademark Superbolt or Supernut, are designed to decrease the torque required to tighten large bolted joints. One of the major problems associated with traditional bolt tightening methods is as the diameter of the bolt increases, the amount of torque required to tighten it increases in the third power of the diameter.

  7. Safety wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_wire

    A safety wire is used to ensure proper security for a fastener. The wire needed is long enough to reach from a fixed location to a hole in the removable fastener, such as a pin — a clevis fastener, sometimes a linchpin or hitch-pin through a clevis yoke for instance — and the wire pulled back upon itself, parallel to its other end, then twisted, a single end inserted through a fastener ...
