Sherex\u2019s vibrational loosening prevention products \u2013 TEC Series\u00ae washers<\/a>, Disc-Lock\u00ae washers<\/a> and Disc-Lock nuts<\/a> \u2013 feature our proven wedge locking technology. This technology utilises tension rather than traditionally-used friction to secure fastened joints in high vibration and load applications. Both TEC Series and Disc-Lock wedge locking washers and nuts product lines are used in a variety of different industries, including automotive, construction, solar, wind, energy, oil and gas, and general manufacturing industries. The decrease in maintenance costs and, in general, the peace of mind of knowing joints will not come loose in high vibration environments provides an early return on investment.<\/p>\n

With TEC Series and Disc-Lock product lines, you can torque it, and forget it.<\/p>\n

Wedge Locking Washer Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"How<\/p>\n

TEC Series and Disc-Lock wedge locking washers are offered in glued pairs; each washer has cams on one side and radial teeth on the other side. The cam sides are glued together. During installation, the radial teeth cause half of the washer to be seated to the bolt or nut, and half to be seated to the base material.<\/p>\n

When the joint is exposed to heavy load or vibration, the bolt or nut will attempt to loosen. Because the TEC Series and Disc-Lock washer\u2019s radial teeth are seated to the base material and the bolt or nut, the loosening movement is forced into the cams between the washer pair.<\/p>\n

Because the cam angles are greater than the thread pitch, a wedge effect is created by the cams, preventing the bolt or nut from rotating loose.

\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Locking Nut Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n

Disc-Lock Nuts are two and three piece nuts<\/a> that utilise the same cam wedge locking technology: when the joint is subjected to heavy shock or vibration, the interlocking cams create a wedge effect because the cam angles are greater than the thread pitch, securing the joint.<\/p>\n
