Lock Nuts

There are various kinds of equipment that contains bolted joints. The range of respective applications is wide and includes transportation, manufacturing, power generation, and more. In these joints, lock nuts provide a clamping force to hold the components of the joint and, correspondingly, the parts of equipment together. However, there are various factors that can weaken this clamping force. They include an under-tightened bolt, equipment vibrations, embedding of the nut into the joint surface on a micro level, and mechanical shocks caused by varying loads from certain kinds of machinery.

The resulting loosening is not just an unpleasant occurrence. It may lead to multiple malfunctions such as the leaks of gas or fluid, bolt’s breakage, or other kinds of damage which can harm the equipment and even lead to accidents.
