Title: Gland nuts Post by: Lids on January 27, 2012, 21:29:29 pm What would you use and why?
Had a 42mm lying around but it was suggested that a 36 would be better. Title: Re: Gland nuts Post by: glenn on January 27, 2012, 23:10:52 pm Berg 36mm forged.
Plenty strong and you can use a torque multiplier to torque it to spec. Title: Re: Gland nuts Post by: TexasTom on January 27, 2012, 23:28:17 pm I normally run the Berg unit, but have also used the Scat glandnut ... torqued to 500lbft no problem ;)

Title: Re: Gland nuts Post by: richie on January 28, 2012, 05:47:02 am Berg when they used to be available,but since Scat came out with a 36mm version i have used that alot,even torqued it to 650lbs on a wedgemated engine,seems just a good as the berg but 1/2 the cost

Title: Re: Gland nuts Post by: Black Sheep on January 30, 2012, 21:43:01 pm Does anyone stock the scat 36mm this side of the pond ? coz I could use one too , I minced the old 42 taking it off for my rebuild .
last time I looked it was a stateside order :-\ Title: Re: Gland nuts Post by: BeetleBug on January 30, 2012, 22:16:03 pm I tested the Scat gland nut just to see what will give up first. Measured the length then torqed to 1000nm - 740lbs. Measured it again, no stretch or any sign of damages. The German crank was also ok. Torqed it again to 1500nm - 1100lbs and again no damages. I gave up but next time I will continue to torque until something give up. It is amazingly easy when you use the torque meister.
