Take bolt security to the next level with Nord-Lock X-Series washers. Engineered for your most critical applications, the X-Series combines the world-renowned wedge-locking technology of original Nord-Lock washers with an innovative integrated spring effect. This unique combination offers a superior solution that protects joints against both spontaneous bolt loosening and slackening.
Why Choose Nord-Lock X-Series?
Standard bolted joints are vulnerable not only to loosening caused by vibration and dynamic loads but also to slackening that occurs due to settlement and relaxation in materials like paint, polymers, composites, and gaskets. The X-Series is specifically designed to counteract both of these common failure modes.
- Proven Wedge-Locking: Utilizes Nord-Lock's signature cam geometry where the cam angle is greater than the thread pitch, securely locking the fastener using tension, not friction, to prevent rotational loosening.
- Integrated Spring Effect: The unique conical shape provides added elasticity to the joint, compensating for the loss of preload caused by settlement and relaxation, thus preventing slackening.
- Maximum Joint Integrity: By maintaining high clamp load and preventing both loosening and slackening, the X-Series ensures unparalleled operational reliability and safety.
Applications:
Nord-Lock X-Series washers are the preferred choice for demanding environments across industries such as:
- Energy (Wind Turbines, Power Generation)
- Transportation (Rail, Off-Highway Vehicles, Automotive)
- Heavy Machinery & Construction
- Manufacturing & Processing Equipment
- Structural Engineering
Secure your critical bolted connections with the ultimate protection offered by Nord-Lock X-Series washers.
