Reliable bolt connections are essential in industrial applications where safety and operational continuity are paramount. The Nord-Lock Group is a global leader in fastening technology and developed the original wedge-locking system in 1982. Fabory works closely with Nord-Lock to provide high-quality solutions that secure critical connections even under extreme conditions. 

How does Nord-Lock wedge-locking technology work? 

Nord-Lock technology secures bolted joints by creating tension instead of relying on friction. A pair of lock washers with cams on one side and radial teeth on the other lock in place during installation. When the joint is exposed to load, the cam effect prevents loosening and maintains consistent clamping force. 

This locking method is reliable under high vibration, dynamic loads, and thermal expansion. Installation is straightforward, and re-tightening is often unnecessary.
