2.4 Screws
Thread forming screws
Screws with the designation P or DG press a permanent
thread into the material when screwed in. If the screw
does not engage in the existing thread when re-installed,
the safety of the screw connection can no longer be
guaranteed.
N If screws with the designation P or DG are screwed
into an existing thread:
– Insert the screw into the hole.
– Turn the screw counterclockwise until the screw
slightly sinks into the hole.
The screw engages in the existing thread.
– Tighten the screw clockwise to the specified torque.
Micro-encapsulated screws:
The micro-encapsulated pre-coating is only effective
when the screw is first screwed in. If a microencapsulated
screw is reused, the screw connection may come loose
during operation.
N Replace micro-encapsulated screw.
N If a micro-encapsulated screw is reused, perform the
following steps:
– Clean threaded hole and screw thread.
– Coat thread of screw with thread-locking adhesive.
– Tighten the screw to the specified torque.
