I have a mobile repair and service company in Oregon that I just started but I have been a mechanic for 45 years. A rock driller for a rock quarry I worked on had them on every bolt and nut on the whole machine and I was really impressed once they lock they aren't moving . I am glad you made this video because now I know where to find them. Thanks
Did use a M14 Nord-lock enlarged version (NL14sp) for my variator fan nut CVT transmission scooter, seems the only way not getting loose nut on this high vibration and heat cycling location.
Ordered directly (4 pairs in blister pack) from the factory in Sweden Nord-lock webshop.
$10+20 UPS sending worldwide to me in Bali, Indonesia.
I used these lock washers on centrifugal machinery and they are second to none.!
Thank you very much for this video. I've always been confused by lock nut washers were supposed to work.
any lock washer works,, you dont need to buy the "special" product.
Going to use them on my Hot Rod, I get them from Mcmaster Carr with a zinc flake coating.
I've always loved the simplicity of that idea. As long as you tighten the bolt correctly (using torque wrench) when installing and use two washers if it's nut&bolt... they will NEVER come loose.
Bolts always come loose because it's more preferable for them to do so. It's very VERY unlikely that bolt with tighten ON IT'S OWN so they will ALWAYS come loose eventually... unless you use locking wires, or these...
Great video
I specified Nord-Lock washers to be used with the fasteners to install custom intake and exhaust transition ducting I designed after the OE turbo chargers were upgraded on a huge marine diesel engine. I was concerned about the fasteners loosening due to vibration and thermal cycling and chose the Nord-Lock. Spring lock washers are a joke. I watched a video of them failing in a vibration test. Stop nuts are fine except the locking elements can only handle so much heat and certain application require they not be reused if removed. The other methods of locking such as lock wire or castellated nuts with cotter pins are a PITA and time consuming.
@hootinouts I have a 2006 Pontiac Torrent AWD ever since I had to change my tension pulley the bolt keeps unscrewing itself, Do you know what size bolt goes through the tension pulley on my car so I can get the correct size Nord lock lock washer ?
The contractor I worked for when building the LA Rams/ Chargers football stadium used this type lock washer. There were applications where it was critical that fasteners remained tightened to proper torque for a lifetime. Such as retractable roof sections weighing many tons.
I make my lock washers and none inlocked in my life..one day i ahd to lock a direction,, if it loose we could kill all of us, and used a method that will work for life, its my secret, it will not get out of there never.i call it counter tight, the more one unlock the more you lock the other so,, impossible mechanical unlock.. :) ancient machinist
its true, i used a split lock washer on the race head on the rear hub drive side of my bicycle.
Over weeks of riding the rear wheel play loosened until riding it felt like a massage machine on my arse and the tire would randomly brush the frame tail struts on both sides randomly and the axle bent because of the instability.
Then i went and did it propper with lock nuts which are serrated just like these washers
I am using these on the Airmaster 3 Blade Propeller on the aircraft I am building. Appear to work great (avoid having to safety wire the prop bolts) , but Airmaster says you can only reuse these once? The install manual says "The Nord-Lock® washers may only reused once. If reusing the washers, separate the washer pairs, and lubricate the cam surfaces with a film of grease before re-assembly."
Cool video i work at the factory in Mattmar Sweden
thanks Stephen, just what i needed.cheers.
the state of the art design is 100% fantastic it work effective as advertised i got them on exhaust bolts
What kind of set up? 2 pair for each bolt? One on each side of gasket?
@StephenCox I have a 2006 Pontiac Torrent AWD and ever since I changed my tension pulley the bolt is constantly coming out , Will the Nord-Lock washer keep the bolt from coming out and which one do I need to use ?
darn good video. Im going to see if they have a kit or a selection.
Thank you for your video
I'm thinking to use Nord-lock washers for a project of new Ball Joints for a car 2003 Chevrolet Cavalier. Original Ball Joints were attached with rivets, which I removed following the instructions from Haynes Manual for that car. The new Ball Joints came with bolts and Prevailing Torque Nuts for attaching them to the Control Arm, but there was no instruction sheet for the torque specs for those nuts. I started to do a research on that question, contacted the seller and so forth, but meanwhile came across this new product, which seems very appealing to me due to its high reliability. May I know your opinion on the torque specifications if I use these washers and Prevailing Torque Nuts or even more interesting situation if to use Nord-lock washers and Nylon Nuts? As far as I understand you apply very small torques on those Nylon Nuts (about 10-14 Ft-lbs) due to their specific locking mechanism with that nylon inside of the nut. But the wedged washers require about 60-70 Ft-lbs (the bolts are M12-1.25, Class 10.9). I wrote to Nord-lock about your great film. Very informative film, thank you.
Finally the comment or info Ive been looking for, thank you. I'm currently rebuilding my rear suspension on a vw passat 02, and well the bolts are discontinued as they'd rather you buy the new one. I don't like new cars so i bought a junker to restore. the rear subframe i have is brand new with all attachments and bolts being upgraded to grade 10.9 and 12.9 where i can find them. the issue is the locating bolt and my fear of it coming apart when i am driving. tons of videos and forums later I see this comment. thank you you and this video have solidified my choice on these washers. I will also use Aerotight locking nuts. I need fail-proof, my Mum will be in the passenger seat at times.
@@cephasgunn1993 The Nord-lock washers are doing a great job till now. I'm glad I installed them on that project w/new removable Ball-Joints. I don't know if it makes much sense, bcs I've read that the Control Arms wear as well, maybe that is why rivets were there, but for right now it works well, no nasty worn ball joints there anymore. I bought new spare Control Arms as well for the future though. But I'm afraid it will be much more difficult to replace them.
This could be the answer to Sailboat Clevis pin replacement. I will use between 2 nuts on M3 Alan head bolts.
Interessante. Vivendo e aprendendo.
can it be use on a direct mount suppressor? crush washer has an uneven tension that can cause baffle strike
I wonder how good will they work on sway bar links?
Structural engineers stopped sprucing split lock washers decades ago as they have proven multiple times to provide zero benefit.
Dodge Ram Cummins PTO cover bolts on 5.9 24 valve
how would these stand up with heat? say if i planned on using a couple of these to hold a bolt (on a clutch) locked inside a gearbox with grease that was reaching temps of 100 degrees ?
Their temperature range is -50°C to 200°C, so you shouldn't have problems. www.nord-lock.com/en-us/nord-lock/products/washers/selection-guide/
they work on a mechanical princip. Until the steel softens up they stay in the range of relaiable. When the steel softens the workload that holds the washers in place changes what in results in failure.
What would happen using them on exhaust & turbo studs that I guess could get to see 500+ degrees on track
They work great on turbo manifolds
Can you use this washer on the nut side? Will it have the same effect?
Yes! If you watched closely in video he used it in bolt and nut side.
How about "just" the nut side?
@@rapaent if it's through hole, you should use one pair under the bolt head and another pair under the nut.
If a single set is adequate under a bolt in a blind hole then a single set should work under a nut with a plain washer under the bolt. I've been using them for years like this.
@@robshort1962 the manufacturer recommends tu use one pair under the Bolt head and one pair under the nut, and not use the plain washer, the Nord-Lock washer needs to sit direct on the surface
Do they come in smaller household sizes? I have a firewand that hold a soapstone ball at end of metal rod. You light it on fire then put it in fireplace ..hold near kindling to start the fire. But the spin on it will overtime...unwind it and the nut falls into fireplace and then useless until replaced. :/ but they are no where near that size!
It's your lucky day; we make a lot of different dimensions, not just these big ones.

You look like the actor in the Thing movie remakes brother!
Joel Edgerton 👍
Where çan i get ?
Cost vs performance loctite.
Too bad they aren't sold at big box stores.
These and lock tight are the only things that work.
Go on any modern car and look for classical split lock washers , the car companies know they don’t work.
If you think this is New NASA write a report on this in the 1990’s!
Sorry, Stephen, youtube decided to put an hour long commercial in the feed, part way through your video. I gave up. Too bad, the information looked good.
Skip advert button????
I've seen that happen too. I don't recall seeing the expected "skip" button, instead had to just exit out of what I was watching.
adblock google chrome extension?? how can you not?
Insructions real mechanics don't read instructions they don't use punctuation either
"don't" they ?
