Metric tab lock washers working principle and application installation industry solutions

What is a metric tab lock washer?

The metric tab lock washers are generally divided into the round nut with a stop washer, the outer tongue stops washer, the double lug stop washer, the metric tab lock washers, and so on. Round nut with metric tab lock washers are mainly used in small round nut locking occasions; external tongue stop washers, double lug stop washers, and metric tab lock washers are used with the general nut locking occasions, but according to the structure of the connecting parts of the shape of the different forms, anti-loosening, reliable, complex structure, high space requirements, assembly needs to be done, for small quantities of not easy to check the Department of the anti-loosening of the requirements of the very stringent Threaded connection, such as significant impact, vibration, high-speed occasions.

DIN 432 washers have a partial cone shape that gives them spring-like flexibility, so they distribute force and grip tighter than split and tooth lock washers. However, they do not resist vibration, unlike DIN 93 washers. These washers prevent loosening from wear or changes in temperature when you bend the tab against the flats of a hex nut or bolt head. They do not need to be used near the edge of the mounting surface. Steel washers resist wear better than 316 stainless steel but aren't as corrosion-resistant. 18-8 stainless steel washers resist corrosion from chemicals and may be mildly magnetic. Three hundred sixteen stainless steel washers are more corrosion resistant than steel and nearly as strong. You can expose them to salt water, chlorine solutions, and chemicals without rusting.

What are the advantages and areas of application of metric tab lock washers?

Metric tab lock washers have the following advantages:

1. Simple and easy to use: the design and installation of metric tab lock washers are relatively simple and easy to use.

2. High reliability: The outer tongue stop washer effectively prevents axial sliding, maintains a fixed position, and improves the equipment's reliability.

3. Economical and practical: the manufacturing cost of the metric tab lock washers is low, and the scope of application is broad; it is an economical and suitable fastener.

4. Widely used: Metric tab lock washers are used in mechanical equipment, automotive, aerospace, and other fields.

Metric tab lock washers are mainly used in the following fields:

1. Mechanical equipment: such as machine tools, presses, printing equipment, and other mechanical equipment that require fixed bearings.

2. Automobile: automobile transmission, suspension, and other parts that must stop axial sliding.

3. Aerospace: Aircraft, rockets, and other aerospace equipment where the position of parts needs to be kept stable.

How to correctly select and install a metric tab lock washers?

Correct selection and installation are essential to ensure the performance and reliability of metric tab lock washers. The choice of metric tab lock washers should be based on the specific application's requirements and the operating environment's characteristics. Factors to be considered include shaft diameter, groove size, number and location of metric tab lock washers, and washer material. Selecting the appropriate outer metric tab lock washers can improve equipment life and performance.

When installing metric tab lock washers, observe the following points:

1. Cleanliness: Make sure the installation area is clean and free of impurities so that the outer metric tab lock washers can work.

2. Standardized operation: according to the requirements of the equipment and the technical data provided by the manufacturer, to carry out the correct installation, according to the direction and position of the outer metric tab lock washers, to ensure that the exterior tongue normal functions.

3. Inspection: After installation, an inspection should be made to ensure that the outer tongue stop washer is securely installed and that the exterior tongue fits well in the shaft's groove.

Correct selection and installation of the outer metric tab lock washers can improve the equipment's stability and safety and extend its equipment's service life.
