Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Lockwasher Comparison
That's the first I'd heard from that industry and I'm sure there are
others, but most I talked to over the years didn't use locktite
compounds once NordLocks became available.
I worked in a metal stamping plant (first job) and chemical plants in MI
and KY. None used LockTite. I don't know the reasoning.

## Nordlocks would be 100X faster to install.... vs prepping
bolt and nut threads to accept the locite goop. And zero hassles
when it comes time to undo the nut ! Who wants to have to blow torch
nuts and bolts....when RED loctite has been used. Esp on tower legs, or
anything way up a tower...pita.
