Seizing Prevention
- By reducing the friction coefficient of the threaded surface through plating and coating, the required axial force can be obtained even at low tightening torque. As a result, the generation of frictional heat in tightening can be suppressed, making it effective in preventing galling and seizing. >>Galling and Seizing

- Galling and seizing are prevented by curing the screw surface using NBK's own processing technology. There is nothing adhering to the surface, eliminating concerns about contamination due to stripping. Furthermore, it is effective in preventing galling and seizing even at high temperatures.
High Strength
- Screws made of high‑strength titanium, stainless steel, resin and surface treatment. For applications that require strength in addition to the properties of the material and surface treatment.

Fixing and Positioning
- Clamping screws with eccentric head are suitable for fixing and positioning. When the screw is tightened, the workpiece is strongly clamped by the head, which is decentered from the shaft center of the screw. The wedge effect creates a large clamping force with low tightening torque.
- Suitable for mounting linear guideway rails. As the decentered head presses the rail against the installation reference surface, precision can be easily achieved when mounting. Also, mounting accuracy is maintained by suppressing warping and misalignment caused by long-term use.
