Schnorr Safety Washers Applications
The original SCHNORR® safety washers were developed as a reliable and economic bolt locking device with the basic principle of a disc spring. This ingenious form combines the advantage of security through friction and mechanical locking.
Original SCHNORR® safety washers are now used worldwide where secure fastening connections to counter the effect of vibration are required.
Functional Principle
SCHNORR® safety washers are in the form of a disc spring but with a trapezoidal cross-section and serrations on both sides. The outer diameter is matched to the head diameter of the pan head and socket head cap screws.
