Cage nut for Liebherr LTM 1070-4.1

The 41 30 026 08 cage nut consists of an M5 nut held within a metal housing. This design allows the nut to float slightly, which assists in aligning fasteners when mounting panels, covers, or brackets to the crane structure. It is specifically intended for installation into pre-punched square holes where access to the rear of the panel is restricted, providing a threaded point for machine screws without the need for a backing nut.

This component is compatible with the Liebherr LTM 1070-4.1 all-terrain crane. It is commonly utilized for securing access panels on the chassis or cabin and for mounting various electrical or hydraulic support brackets throughout the machine. The cage design provides a wider contact surface against the mounting material, which helps distribute clamping loads across the panel surface.

Cage nuts are used in heavy machinery to simplify assembly and maintenance procedures. By allowing for minor adjustments during the installation of fasteners, they compensate for slight misalignments between components. This type of hardware ensures that panels remain securely attached while allowing for repeated removal and reinstallation during routine maintenance tasks.
