The Main Function of the Lock Washer

2024-08-22

As a key component in mechanical assembly, the multifunctionality of lock washers plays an important role in ensuring the stability of equipment and extending its service life.

1. Excellent anti-loosening performance

The core function of lock washers is to effectively resist the impact of external forces and vibrations, and ensure that the fastening state between bolts and nuts is not destroyed. It can maintain the stability of the connection even under harsh working conditions.

2. Expert in balanced load distribution

In complex mechanical structures, threaded connection points often bear uneven load distribution. Lock washers can cleverly disperse these concentrated stresses, increase the contact area, improve the bearing capacity and stability of the connection, and avoid damage caused by local overload.

3. Guardian of threads

Faced with frequent installation and disassembly needs, threaded parts are extremely susceptible to wear and damage. The emergence of lock washers reduces the damage to threads caused by repeated operations. This protection not only extends the service life of the threads, but also reduces the maintenance costs and safety risks caused by connection failure.

4. Intelligent design to enhance friction

The surface of the lock washer is specially treated to form a rough texture, which increases the friction coefficient between the washer and the bolt or nut. Even in extreme environments such as heat, humidity or constant vibration, it can firmly lock the connection parts to prevent them from accidentally loosening.
