- Serrated outer faces:
The hardened serrations bite into the bolt/nut and the mating surface to provide a secure grip.
- Internal cam design:
Angled cams that are steeper than the thread pitch create a ‘wedge effect’. When loosening forces are applied, the cams lock together, maintaining the clamping force.
- No retightening required:
Connections can only be released by hand force, eliminating the need for ongoing checks.
Why choose a wedge-shaped locking washer instead of traditional options?
Traditional methods are regarded as ‘locking’, but in reality they can still loosen and fail under dynamic conditions and vibration.
The Wedgewasher stands out in the following areas:
