The instructions with my Rohn equalizer plates say to "Stake All Nuts After Assembly." What does that mean? I know to run some wire through the turnbuckles, but this is about the nuts holding the tur

It means to ruin the threads with a punch. You actually strike the nut and the bolt threads. This prevents the nuts from backing off. I don't recommend it. If you are worried about it, double nut or

Originally, you'd take a chisel and deform the threads on the bolt right where the nut is so that the nut cannot turn. These days, it's putting a blob of suitable epoxy on the bolt/nut. I suspect any

The three-hole equalizer plates supplied by Rohn for my 45G came with stout stamped steel galvanized jam nuts, no mention of staking. I used the jam nuts, of course, but added Loctite 262 on the main

Almost every bolt for my 45G (except the ones through the legs) came with spring steel jam/lock nuts. I've never seen nuts staked more than what you'd do with a center punch. That keeps them from tur
