NORD-LOCK WASHERS The original wedge-locking solution ENGLISH

  • METRIC

2 Nord-Lock washers secure bolted joints with tension instead of friction. The system is comprised of a pair of washers with cams on one side and radial teeth on the opposite side.

Since the cam angle is greater than the thread pitch a wedge effect is created by the cams, preventing the bolt from rotating loose.

The proven original Nord-Lock wedge-locking products are the ideal choice for critical bolted joints.

Nord-Lock wedge-locking technology Since the Nord-Lock Group began operations in 1982 we have focused on providing the worlds most effective bolt securing system. Our products are based on leading wedge-locking technology and are recognized for their ability to safely secure bolted joints exposed to severe vibration and dynamic loads.

When you choose Nord-Lock you do not only choose a supplier or a manufacturer, you also benefit from a partnership with an expert in bolted joint technology. Our global team of sales engineers work with our clients to solve bolt securing problems in the most demanding applications.

3 Nord-Lock washers are proven as a safe bolt securing system according to DIN 65151 tests performed by the independent research organizations IMA and CETIM. In addition, Nord-Lock personnel performs over 10,000 live Junker vibration tests around the globe every year. Would you like to see a live demonstration? Find your nearest representative through www.nord-lock.com/contact Fig 2: Drawing of the test rig. The assembled parts are vibrated vertically and the joints are subjected to two impacts per cycle.

The impacts are parallel to the bolt. The arrow displays the direction of vibration during the test. After testing, the fasteners are inspected for rotation.

During the test, the joint is exposed to transverse movements underneath the bolt head / nut, while the clamping force is continuously measured.

Proven according to NASM impact & vibration test The National Aerospace test, according to NASM 1312-7, is a test method originally developed by the U.S. military to test bolted connections resilience against impact and vibration.

Fig 1: The Junker test shows that Nord-Lock washers safely secured the bolted connection; only a limited amount of tension is initially lost due to normal settlements. The wedge-locking function is verified through the clear increase in tension during untightening. All other bolt locking methods in the test failed to prevent loosening of the joint.

Nord-Lock washers are proven as a safe bolt securing system according to NASM 1312-7 tests performed by the independent organization Det Norske Veritas (DNV). If you wish to perform your own real-life testing and evaluation of Nord-Lock washers for your application, you can order samples through www.nord-lock.com/contact Vibration test Bolt M8 (8.8) with clamp length 25 mm Over the years, Nord-Lock washers have been rigorously tested and approved by independent institutes as well as certification authorities.

Proven and certified by TÜV Nord-Lock washers have been certified for safety and quality by TÜV, a leading international institute in quality and safety certification. In a two-step process, TÜV monitored and successfully approved both Nord-Lock washers and Nord-Locks production facilities.

4 Nord-Lock washers are high end products with documented success in many industries. Our washers are approved by several industry standards and specified by numerous international companies.

Industries where Nord-Lock washers are used Nord-Lock washers are used in industries such as: energy, transportation, offshore, mining and quarrying, construction and bridge building, manufacturing and processing, ship building, forestry and agriculture, heavy vehicles, and military. The number of industries that use Nord-Lock washers is continuously growing. Often joints do not start to loosen until an application is in regular use, therefore Nord-Lock washers are commonly retrofitted during maintenance, repair and overhaul procedures.

Certificates & approvals The most prominent certificates are from:

  • DIBt (Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik)
  • DNV (Det Norske Veritas)
  • EBA (Eisenbahn-Bundesamt)
  • TÜV (Technischer Überwachungs-Verein)

Quality & environmental assurance

  • Licensed by Drken to perform Delta Protekt surface coating in-house
  • RoHs, ELV and Reach compliant

6 Nord-Lock washers are easy and effective to use while ensuring structural security for applications exposed to vibration and dynamic loads.

Installing the washers The pre-assembled washers are installed in pairs, cam face to cam face. Nord-Lock recommends lubrication when possible.

Tightening Tighten Nord-Lock washers with standard tools according to the guidelines (on page 9-11). Tightening guidelines for other bolt grades are available through your Nord-Lock representative.

Untightening Untightening Nord-Lock washers is as simple as tightening.

Note that since the locking function is not based on increased friction, the untightening torque is generally lower than the tightening torque. Therefore it is not possible to measure off-torque as verification of locking function.

Reusing Nord-Lock Nord-Lock washers can normally be reused. As with all fasteners, they should be inspected for wear before reassembly. Make sure that the washers are reinstalled correctly cam face to cam face. Nord-Lock recommends lubrication of fasteners before reuse in order to minimize changes in friction conditions.

Using Nord-Lock washers When the two criteria above are met, you have verified the locking function of the Nord-Lock washers.

Utilize the advantages of lubrication Nord-Lock recommends the use of a high quality, anti-seize lubricant as it improves the tightening results. It is especially beneficial for large sized bolts and stainless steel applications.

The Nord-Lock wedge-locking function provides safe locking in both dry and lubricated conditions. Benefits of lubricated fasteners include:

  • Improved reusability
  • Reduced friction and deviation
  • Facilitated assembly and disassembly
  • Reduced torsion stress due to minimized thread friction
  • Additional protection against corrosion When untightening a bolt secured by Nord-Lock washers, check that sliding occurs between the cam faces.

After disassembly, impression marks must be visible on both the fastener and the contact surface.

Nord-Lock 254 SMO washers EN 1.4547 or equivalent, surface hardened Dimension chart Thread friction coefficients have theoretical values but are verified through testing. Under head friction coefficients have been established by tests. Torque guidelines for other bolt grades are available through your local Nord-Lock representative.

254 SMO is a high performance austenitic stainless steel (according to EN 1.4547) with greater mechanical strength and resistance against corrosion than most austenitic stainless steel grades. The material is resilient against pitting and crevice corrosion due to high contents of chromium, nickel, molybdenum and nitrogen.

Nord-Lock 254 SMO washers are specially designed for chloride rich processes and salt water solutions / atmospheres, i.e. environments where stainless steel washers made of EN 1.4404 are not suitable.

12 Nord-Lock washers joint guide Tapped holes Nord-Lock washers safely lock the bolt against the underlying surface.

Stud bolts Nord-Lock washers safely lock the nut on stud bolts and eliminate the need for adhesives.

Through holes As for all locking washers, through holes require two pairs of Nord-Lock washers - one pair for securing the bolt and a second pair for securing the nut.

Turn both fasteners in order to close the cams on both washer pairs before tightening to minimize settlements. Keep the nut secure whilst tightening the bolt.

Counter bores The outer diameter of regular Nord-Lock washers is designed for counter-bore holes according to DIN 974, i.e. the washers fit under the head of standard bolts.

Applications with large / slotted holes or soft underlying surfaces To optimize the load distribution for applications with large / slotted holes or with soft underlying surface, use a flanged nut / bolt together with Nord-Lock sp washers with enlarged outer diameter.

Soft underlying surfaces Large / slotted holes If your application corresponds to one or more of the above mentioned design criteria, contact your Nord-Lock representative and we will help you find an alternative solution.

Designs where Nord-Lock washers are not recommended

  • Mating surfaces that are not locked in place (see left figure)
  • Mating surfaces harder than the washers
  • Very soft mating surface, e.g. wood, plastic
  • Applications with extremely large settlements
  • Non-preloaded joints

Nord-Lock sp (enlarged outer diameter) washers Nord-Lock washers are available with an enlarged outer diameter, referred to as sp washers. sp washers are designed for use on large / slotted holes, painted / sensitive surfaces or soft materials. Use Nord-Lock sp washers with flanged bolts or nuts for optimum load distribution.

Ø inner regular = Ø inner sp

Ø outer regular < Ø outer sp Uniform friction with Nord-Lock washers When using Nord-Lock washers, sliding always occurs between the upper washer and the bolt head / nut. At a given torque, the preload will be the same, regardless of the contact material.

Nord-Lock provides customized torque guidelines for your application, contact your nearest representative.

Tightening Untightening By using sp washers, the load is distributed over a larger surface which can be more gentle for sensitive surfaces. Please consult Nord-Lock to find the optimal solution for your application.

A flanged nut and Nord-Lock sp washers increase the load

supporting surface for

applications with slotted holes.

It is important to have control over the friction conditions in order to obtain the desired preload when tightening a joint.

When no washer is used under the fastener, the friction depends on the contact surface. At a given torque, the obtained preload will vary depending on the contact material.

Customer unique solutions Over the years, the Nord-Lock Group has entered several partnerships to develop unique solutions for the most creative designs. Let us help you find the optimum solution for your specific requirements.

Your partner for bolting solutions Multi-jackbolt tensioning Superbolt multi-jackbolt tensioning is an innovative technology for tightening of medium to large bolts and studs. The method is simple, accurate and cost effective.

Only hand tools are required to tighten even the largest of bolts. Superbolt tensioners can be threaded onto a new or existing bolt, stud, threaded rod or shaft.

Expansion bolting Superbolt Expansion bolts replace traditional interference or force fit bolts. They offer tremendous radial expansion and joint clamping power in one bolting system. Radial expansion is critical for rotating couplings or alignment systems that require the bolts to be able to handle transfer of forces in shear. Expansion bolts are available for blind hole and through hole applications.
