Seismic washer: Automatically follows gaps in wood! No need for additional tightening with the Tightonic washer.
For those troubled by "wood shrinkage loosening and tightening"! Introducing the easy-to-install seismic washer "Titanic," suitable for medium to large wooden structures.
Do you have any concerns like these on wooden structures or vibration-prone sites? ■ Nuts loosen due to "wood shrinkage" from drying, reducing the strength of structural joints. ■ Regular manual tightening processes are required for addressing aging changes and loosening after handover. ■ The abundance of reinforcement hardware cannot fit within the walls, limiting design aesthetics and fire safety design. The seismic washer Taitonic fundamentally resolves these issues. ◇ Patent technology "Magic Ring" automatic follow-up performance Even when wood dries and shrinks, the built-in ring automatically acts in the tightening direction, instantly absorbing gaps. ◇ Significantly reduces the hassle of re-tightening maintenance It eliminates the need for re-tightening work after construction or after a long period, maintaining the initial fastening force of the joints. ◇ Simplifies hardware installation with structural pulling effect It firmly fastens the structure with strong holding power. By reducing unnecessary pulling hardware, it results in a neat fit and contributes to fire spread suppression. You can see examples of joints used in large-scale wooden structures. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
