Why do screws loosen? This explains the causes of screw loosening!
The loosening of screws is related to the decrease in fastening force (bolt axial force), and the causes can be broadly divided into two categories: "non-rotational loosening of screws" and "rotational loosening of screws." When the bolt axial force is low or decreases, the number of cycles until bolt failure decreases, leading to a very dangerous situation. In combination with measures against non-rotational loosening, our 'HLN Hard Lock Nut' exhibits a powerful anti-loosening effect based on the principle of wedging. Therefore, you can use it with confidence without worrying about a decrease in fastening force. [Causes of Screw Loosening] ■ Non-rotational loosening of screws - Initial settling - Indentation loosening - Loosening due to micro-motion wear, excessive tightening, and other external forces - Loosening due to thermal causes ■ Rotational loosening of screws *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
