In what can be deemed dangerous environments TCBs offer many installation advantages and have been used for mining, earthmoving and tunneling applications.
To mitigate against extreme vibration and impact forces TCBs are also widely specified for piling applications.
TCB assemblies are widely used in temporary trestle or steelwork and are easily removed during its breakdown, even after many months/years in service.
TCB assemblies have been installed in stone crushing/sieving machinery where traditional swaged collar rivets have failed.
A locking type nut can be supplied to give added protection for very high vibratory applications.
