Toothed lock washers are designed to prevent loosening in bolted connections. They feature sharp teeth that bite into the surface of the material and the fastener, creating a mechanical lock that resists rotational movement.
These washers are ideal for applications where maintaining a secure connection is critical, such as in automotive, machinery, and electrical installations. Toothed lock washers are available in various sizes and materials to suit different needs.

The primary benefit of toothed lock washers is their ability to prevent loosening. The teeth on the washer provide a secure grip on both the fastener and the material, ensuring that the connection remains tight even under vibration or dynamic loads.
Additionally, toothed lock washers are easy to install and do not require special tools. They are also reusable, offering long-term value and reliability in a wide range of applications.
