Hexagonal Nut 110971

Hexagonal Nut (Part No.: 110971)

Function & Importance

The hexagonal nut (P/N 110971) is a critical fastening component designed for specific assembly points within Jenbacher gas engines. Its primary function is to securely join engine parts—such as piping flanges, brackets, or structural covers—under high vibration and thermal cycling conditions. This ensures mechanical integrity, prevents leaks, and maintains the engine’s operational safety and reliability.

Usage & Installation

Preparation: Verify the nut and mating bolt/thread are clean, undamaged, and free of old lubricant or debris.

Application: Typically used with a calibrated torque wrench. Follow Jenbacher’s official torque specifications for the specific assembly to avoid under- or over-tightening.

Securing: Apply evenly, often in conjunction with a lock washer or similar element, to prevent loosening during engine operation. Never reuse if worn or damaged.

Key Features

Made of high-grade steel, resistant to corrosion and engine temperatures.
