RIPP LOCK® screw lock

Efficient and secure
RIPP LOCK® lock washers

The system
RIPP LOCK® lock washers have radial ribs on both sides.
The contact angle at the foot of the ribs is obvious larger than the gradient angle of the metric thread.

RIPP LOCK® lock washers

Benefits
Because of the preload force the ribs of the
RIPP LOCK® washers are embossed into the
counter surface during assembly.
The resulting form lock prevents self-loosening
of the connection reliably, even under extreme
vibrations or high dynamic stresses.
Due to their high hardness the washers can be
used with screws of all property classes up to 12.9.

Excellent locking against self-unscrewing – even under high dynamic stress

Possible applications

RIPP LOCK® screw fastening Through screw joints with

in tapped holes two RIPP LOCK® washers

With RIPP LOCK®, adhesion of RIPP LOCK® shall not be used

studs is not required anymore on loose plain washers

Tightening torques
To minimise creep and relaxation, screws with a large head support are used in many applications. However,
particularly for light metals, friction values often are so high that the desired preload-forces are not achieved (see
red lines in diagram). With the use of RIPP LOCK® lock washers which only allow a relative movement between
screw head and washer, defined friction values and thus defined clamping forces are always achieved – even for
most diverse materials and surfaces (see blue lines in diagram).

RIPP LOCK® lock screws and nuts

Special advantages
n Reliable fastening connections, no additional elements required
n Increased contact area makes washers and spring washers unnecessary
n Rounded locking ribs enable corrosion protection to be largely maintained at the fastening points, since the
fastening does not damage the surface
n Reduced setting values for the screws because of cold working of the clamped materials
n Good tightening characteristics, excellent reusability

Because the ribs do not dig into the surface in the release direction, the fastening is gentle to sensitive surfaces.
The damage to the surface around the contact area is minimal.

The diagram shows the principle of operation of these self-locking screws and nuts.

Tightening: formation of indentations

Releasing: slight indentations

After release:
slightly indented surface

Design instructions
RIPP LOCK® self-locking screws and nuts are available as:
n Hexagon socket self-locking screws, property class 100
n Hexagon head self-locking screws, property class 100
n Hexagon head self-locking nuts, property class 10

For self-locking screws with hexagon socket heads, the head heights and hexagon sizes are identical to those for
DIN 912 screws. To achieve a greater contact area the head diameter is slightly increased. This results in a reduced
surface pressure.

Property classes
n Self-locking screws 100 = 1,040 N/mm2
n Self-locking nuts 10: for screws up to property class 10.9 and screw class 100
n Property classes 12.9 and 12 available on request

Hardness
n Hardness at the edge amounts 400 – 500 HV
