[SSOO Nut Adoption Case] Hydrogen Emission Parts and Filter Parts
By reducing the number of screw components, we have achieved a weight reduction of approximately 17%! Here are examples of the adoption of SSOO nuts. *SSOO nut technical report available.
Here are some examples of adoption that contributed to weight reduction with the high pull-out strength of SSOO nuts. <Adoption Example 1> Adoption Location: Hydrogen discharge parts used in hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (4 SSOO nuts, M6 size, used per unit) Target Resin: PP-TD30 (Polypropylene Talc 30%) [Challenge] ■ To reduce the number of screw components for weight reduction (previously 6 per unit) [Solution] ■ High pull-out strength enabled the reduction of the number of components used [Effect] ■ Reduced the number of screw components to 4 per unit ■ Achieved a weight reduction of 8g (approximately 17%) for screws <Adoption Example 2> Adoption Location: Automotive filter components (2 SSOO nuts, M6 size, used) Target Resin: New material resin using plant-derived fibers (PP) [Challenge] ■ To reduce the number of screw components for weight reduction (previously 3) ■ Insufficient strength of the new material resin causes it to spin under the specified torque with conventional products [Solution] ■ High pull-out strength enabled the reduction of the number of components used ■ High torque resistance performance meets the specified torque requirements [Effect] ■ Reduced the number of screw components to 2 ■ Achieved a weight reduction of 4g (approximately 17%) for screws
