The 971-RTHMBSCREWZ is an accessory used to secure and lock certain digital connectors. It is a two-piece assembly composed of a round thumbscrew and interior D-shaped locking element. This type of accessory often is referred to as a jackscrew or D-sub captive screw.

Application Field

The 971-RTHMBSCREWZ is designed for a broad range of applications, from smaller miniature connectors to larger communication ports. The unique design of the screw makes it ideal for applications where an integrated mechanical lock is needed. It offers easier access and fast removal, compared to other types of threaded locking devices. This device is commonly used to secure D-shaped connectors, such as those used in electronics, computers, multimedia devices, telecommunications, and data communications.

Working Principle

The working principle of the 971-RTHMBSCREWZ is relatively simple. It consists of two pieces that work in tandem to ensure proper and secure fastening: the round thumbscrew and the interior D-shaped locking element. To fasten the connector, the round thumbscrew is inserted through an installation hole and then it engages the D-shaped locking element attached inside the connector.

The D-shaped locking element utilizes the form and shape of its interior to provide a secure and stable hold on the round thumbscrew. When the round thumbscrew is inserted, the D-shaped locking element locks onto the notch that is located in the center of the thumbscrew. As the thumbscrew is progressively tightened, the D-shaped element is forced to rotate and the tightening action is translated through the entire connector, providing a secure, tight, and reliable connection.

The 971-RTHMBSCREWZ is an ideal choice for applications that require a secure electrical and mechanical connection between two components. It helps to ensure that the mating connector remains firmly in place, while allowing for easy access and fast removal, due to the simple and efficient working principle.
