Gallock Wedge Lock Washers
Steely Structured Lock Washers
Lesjöfors Stock Spring US presents the Gallock Wedge Lock Washers—pairs of flat washers bearing a cam set on one face and radial knurling on the other. These are securely glued together, eliminating assembly errors.
How They Work
The Gallock Wedge Lock Washers work by employing a wedge-shaped surface on the inner side and radial teeth on the outer side. When the bolt is tightened, the radial teeth interlock with the mating surface, ensuring the system's secure adjustment. Consequently, movement is restricted to the inner washer surfaces, and clamping force increases automatically.
The Gallock Advantage
These washers offer several advantages. Their unique cam system uses tension to generate high force in fastened joints exposed to vibrations, making them ideal for dynamic loads. They're easy to install, remove, and are compatible with high-tensile bolts of strengths 8.8, 10.9, and 12.9 and their respective nuts. Moreover, they can be reused without compromising functionality or quality, and their locking mechanism remains unaffected by lubrication. Finally, they guarantee secure fastening at lower preloads compared to alternative options.
