A while back we had a discussion on using lock nuts AKA jam nuts. The thought experiment was proposed that explained the jam nut as no more than moving the bolt head down the bolt to a different loca

I would also add that jam nuts are likely the most ineffective means of locking compared to safety wiring, castle nuts, and Nylok nuts as much of the effectiveness depends on the user. OTOH that is t

Roger, I'm no mechanical engineer - just a lowly communications engineer - but I'm trying to understand the point you are making: Isn't this exactly what happens when you tighten the head on a conven

This arose from the problem of bolts falling out of rotators and trying to find effective means of preventing that. When you tighten a bolt the torque is the vector sum of a rotating ramp which is di

Roger, You say that with a lock nut on the bolt that you can not turn the bolt in the rotator without breaking it. What you are missing is that with your lock nut on the bolt, it is not the bolt/rot

Accepting Roger's empirical results at face value, how about the following hypothesis: I don't know for sure, but I suspect that most of the friction that hold a threaded bolt in a threaded hole is t

Roger, OK I think I understand what you are saying. In my layman's terms, when you torque up a conventional bolt some of the torque converts to a linear "stretch" force on the bolt (via the ramp) and

"A while back we had a discussion on using lock nuts AKA jam nuts." That might be the source of our disconnects. We're equating "lock nuts" with "jamnuts". In my simple-mindedness, I think of a lock
