Optimized locking device for material with lower tensile strength
Optimized locking device for material with lower tensile strength, e.g. plastics or light metals.
Function
The ribs cause the supporting surface to deform and then harden, thus increasing the loosening torque of the screw.
Features
- More efficient loosening protection than tooth lock washers or the like.
- Reduced number of assembly components.
- Improved feeding at the assembly compared to screws combined with washers.
- Reduced costs for the assembly in total.
