Exclusive FloatingNut Design
The FloatingNut protects the elevating screw and threads from excessive side loading caused by dock-walk; damage which can cause poor cranking performance or binding. Unique twin-bulkheads, above and below the FloatingNut, further increase structural resistance to side-load forces when landing legs are fully extended.
