25-6852 25 Series Wing Nut Linear Bearing Brake Kit 10 Pack by 80/20

Description

Product Overview

The 25-6852 Wing Nut Linear Bearing Brake Kit is engineered for the 25 Series of 80/20 modular framing systems. Each kit contains ten precision‑machined wing nuts that serve as adjustable stops, allowing users to lock gliding profiles into semi‑permanent positions. Constructed from hardened steel, the components resist wear and maintain dimensional stability under heavy loads. Package dimensions measure 7 x 6 x 5 inches and the total weight is approximately 1.1 pounds, making storage and handling straightforward. Manufactured by 80/20 Inc., a leader in industrial framing solutions, this brake kit has earned a strong reputation, ranking #16 in the Industrial Mechanical Brakes category on Amazon.

Designed for versatility, the kit integrates seamlessly with existing 25 Series brake assemblies, eliminating the need for additional hardware. The wing nut mechanism provides a quick‑release feature that enables rapid adjustments without compromising the rigidity of the system. This balance of flexibility and strength makes the kit suitable for a wide range of applications, from automation equipment to custom workstations.

Usage

Engineers and technicians working in industrial automation, material handling, and custom machinery will find the 25-6852 kit indispensable. The adjustable stop function is ideal for scenarios where precise positioning of linear bearings is critical, such as in CNC machines, robotic arms, and conveyor systems. By securing gliding profiles, the kit reduces unwanted movement, enhancing safety and operational efficiency. Its compact form factor ensures that it can be installed in confined spaces without obstructing other components. The kit is also valuable for prototyping environments where rapid reconfiguration is required.

Because the kit is compatible with the widely adopted 25 Series, it serves both new builds and retrofits. Users can replace worn‑out stops or upgrade existing brake setups to achieve tighter tolerances. The steel construction tolerates temperatures typical of most industrial settings, and the design complies with standard safety regulations for mechanical braking components.

FAQ

What size bearings does this kit accommodate?

The kit is designed for the standard linear bearing profiles used with the 25 Series of 80/20 framing, typically 10 mm to 30 mm in width.

Can the wing nuts be repositioned after installation?

Yes, the wing nuts feature a quick‑release mechanism that allows users to adjust or relocate the stop without removing the entire brake assembly.

Is the kit compatible with other 80/20 series products?

While optimized for the 25 Series, the kit can be adapted to other 80/20 series frames with minor modifications, provided the mounting holes align.

What is the recommended torque for tightening the wing nuts?

We recommend a torque of 2–3 Nm to achieve a secure lock without over‑compressing the bearing surface.

How does the kit improve safety in mechanical systems?

By providing a reliable locking point, the kit prevents unintended movement of linear components, reducing the risk of equipment damage and operator injury.
