Quick Release Couplings

Product catalog summary

Overview
Quick Release Couplings GN 1050 are designed for tool-free positioning and connection of components using studs GN 1050.1. They are ideal for repeated machine setups or assemblies, allowing efficient mounting of guide rails, covers, or additional devices. A safety locking button prevents accidental opening, and a visible red ring indicates the unlocked state.

Specifications
The couplings are made from aluminum with a black anodized finish, and the closure mechanism is steel, zinc plated, and blue passivated. They operate within a temperature range of -30°C to 120°C and comply with RoHS standards. The couplings do not transmit torque, and coding L can compensate for radial and axial offsets.

Ordering Information
To order, specify the nominal size, type (A with threaded stud or I with internal thread), coding (F for fixed bearing or L for floating bearing), and finish. Example: GN 1050-2N-M10-I-L-ASS.

Mounting and Load Information
The maximum tensile, compressive, and shear loads are specified for different nominal sizes and mounting threads. Safety instructions emphasize that load capacities depend on the supporting structure's strength, requiring at least property class 8 for threaded holes or inserted nuts and screws.

Studs and Flanges
Studs GN 1050.1 are available for positioning and attaching components without tools. They are compatible with quick release couplings and can be ordered individually. Flanges GN 1050.2 serve as accessories for mounting couplings and studs, providing additional attachment options, especially in cases where standard fastening methods are inadequate.

Application Examples
The document includes application examples for profile systems, demonstrating the versatility and efficiency of quick release couplings in various industrial settings.
