ACE Clamping Flange M 5x0.5 for Shock Absorber, Side Mounting - MB5SC2

ACE side-mounting clamping flange with M 5x0,5 thread, compatible with ACE shock absorbers MC 5.... Bolts to the machine frame and clamps the absorber radially, giving a rigid seat in place of a single mounting nut. Used where lateral loads or vibration would otherwise loosen a nut-mounted absorber over time.

Pros:

• Rigid radial seat for M 5x0,5 body on MC 5..., handles side loads better than a nut
• Bolted to the frame for a repeatable absorber position
• Quick to install and replace without disturbing the absorber itself

Cons:

• Adds installation depth compared with plain nut mounting
• Thread-specific (M 5x0,5), no cross-thread fit
• SC2 variant needs a counter-nut to lock the assembly
