Company Profile
Accurate levelling of equipment and heavy machinery is facilitated by this new range of Levelling Sets from Elesa. With individual load ratings from 4000kg to 49,500kg static load, the GN350 series are ideal for permanent levelling of machine tools, production line machinery, process equipment or gravity transport systems where very accurate degrees of slope may be required. Normally used in a configuration of 3 or more per equipment piece, the static load capacity created is sufficient to deal with even very large machinery.
The GN350 Levelling Sets are available in sizes from 25mm dia. up to 80mm dia. and are generally used in conjunction with spherical levelling washers, which take up angular differences in ground or equipment faces to ensure stress free positioning. Each GN350 set comprises a threaded upper sleeve with a fine thread, which allows a stepless and precise setting and locking using a standard C spanner. Normally, this screw is permanently and securely locked by the static load generated when the mounting screw is tightened - however if this is not considered sufficient then suitable locknuts are available.
