ASCON Position Coupler

ASCON Position Coupler is used in applications in which neither a bar of same or different diameter can be rotated. Having a degree of adjustability, this coupler can also be used as a bridge connector between two fixed bars. It comprises of three components, a male section, a female section and a lock nut. The male component has an internal tapered thread and an extended external parallel thread. The female component has a parallel thread and a tapered thread, both of which are internal. A locknut is used to secure the connection between the parallel threads. All components, including the locknut must be tightened using a torque wrench. Plastic thread protectors are used to prevent damage to the threaded bar ends. Plastic end caps protect the internal threads of the couplers.
