That can have very serious consequences for users

These parts consist of different materials and have different shapes according to their intended use. The tightening torque can easily be determined by means of a simple torque wrench..

Thus it becomes possible to reduce the fastener’s contribution to weight and the product life costs of the final product. Friction resists this propensity to self-release.Friction not only clamps the wheels to a car and a cylinder head to the block.

It is the market leader in the field of friction coefficient analysis on screw connections up to the size of M80. Friction in this context is a reciprocal effect between two contacting surfaces.

Without friction in the contact surfaces of screw, nut, and bolted components, the connection would spontaneously and immediately release and the components would fall apart.

That can have very serious consequences for users of motor vehicles, aircraft and railways, as well as for users in the wind industry, and in bridge and steel construction.
