Locking Washers

A lock washer, also known as a spring washer or Grover washer, is used to prevent bolts and nuts from self loosening under the influence of vibrations and dynamic loads. It has a cut shape that allows it to create additional tension and pressure on the connection, which helps to fix the fastener.
It is made primarily of high-quality stainless steel, which provides corrosion resistance and durability in aggressive environments. Some models may have a special coating that increases their resistance to wear and chemical attack.

What is a lock washer for - main functions

The lock washer works on the principle of elastic deformation: when a bolt or nut is tightened, it compresses, creating additional pressure that prevents the fastener from loosening. It can be used in a wide range of applications, including the automotive industry, mechanical engineering, construction, and electrical engineering.
Due to their design, lock washers also ensure that the load is evenly distributed over the surface of the connection, reducing the risk of damage to the material with which they interact.

Types of lock washers

Lock washers are important elements of fasteners used to prevent bolts and nuts from loosening under the influence of vibrations and dynamic loads. There are several main types of lock washers:

1. Wavy washers Wavy washers have a profile with wavy bends that provide an elastic force that keeps the fastener taut. They are used where moderate elasticity and compensation for thermal expansion are required.

2. Toothed washers These washers have teeth or projections on the outer or inner edge that bite into the surfaces of the parts to be joined, providing additional grip and preventing self loosening. They are used in cases where a strong connection is required.

3. Conical washers Conical washers are shaped like a cone and provide an elastic force under tension. They are often used in fastening connections where high reliability and resistance to vibrations are required.

Each of these types of washers performs specific functions and is suitable for certain operating conditions, making them indispensable in various industries and construction.

Applications of lock washers

Lock washers are small but important parts that are used in a variety of applications. For example, they are used in mechanical engineering to hold parts in position. They are also used in industry, furniture manufacturing, electronics, and other sectors. Lock washers provide reliable fixation, prevent spontaneous disconnection or displacement of parts during operation or transportation.

Materials for the manufacture of lock washers

Materials for the manufacture of lock washers can be quite diverse, depending on the specific application and requirements. Some of the most common materials include steel, stainless steel, brass, aluminum, and plastic. 
Steel washers have high strength and durability, making them ideal for harsh environments in the power and mechanical industries. Stainless steel is suitable for applications where corrosion resistance is required, such as the food industry or medical equipment. 
Brass washers have high chemical resistance and work well in environments with aggressive liquids. Aluminum washers are lightweight and have high thermal conductivity, which is useful in electrical and electronics applications. Plastic washers, for example, made of polyethylene or nylon, are well suited for applications where low weight and insulation from electrical current are important.
Therefore, the choice of material for lock washers depends on the specific application and operating conditions.
