Rivnut seems less strong, but I could be wrong

I think I might try to get a weld nut with a large flange and bolt the flange

Also, axial load both up and down is 100#

Problem with welding is the plate is aluminum and the nut is ss

I have a small plate that I want to move up and down by turning a threaded rod. The plate is not thick enough to tap it, so I was doing some research and found sleeve nuts. However, i want the plate to hold forces up and down, and sleeve nuts seem 1 directional. Ideally, if they could make a...

Yes, its a bit of a conundrum. We cant use diesel because of community pressures. Understand that quantity is important, but we have a pretty large low pressure main nearby. We were talking to some mfrs and they said we should use a booster on a UPS. Has anyone taken this approach?

I have a need for a 1000kw electrical generator, but I only have street pressure gas (4 to 7 inch wc). Are there generators that can have inlet pressures this low? I was thinking about adding a booster, but this is an emergency generator and the booster would not have power when initially...
