Description
Application areas
Spring washers provide a vibration resistant function, they consist of ring split at one point and bent into a helical shape, this causes the washer to exert a spring force between the fastener's head and the bearing face which maintains the washer hard against the face and the bolt thread hard against the nut or threaded hole, creating more friction and resistance to rotation
Directions of use
Spring washers are a left hand helix and allow the thread to be tightened in a right hand direction only, i.e. a clockwise direction. When a left hand turning motion is applied, the raised edge bites into the underside of the bolt or nut and the part that it is bolted to, thus resisting turning. Therefore, spring washers are ineffective on left hand threads and hardened surfaces. Also, they are not to be used in conjunction with a flat washer under the spring washer, as this isolates the spring washer from biting into the component that will resist turning. Where a flat washer is required to span a large hole in a component, a nyloc nut (nylon insert) must be used
