NORD-LOCK WASHER
NORD-LOCKWEDGE-LOCKINGSOLUTIONS
Nord-Lock
original washers are recognized around the world for their ability tosecure
bolted joints exposed to severe vibration and dynamic loads.
Developed in Sweden, in 1982, Nord-Lock washers prevent bolted
connections from loosening — even under the most severe vibration and dynamic
loads. With their unique wedge-locking technology and high-quality steel, the washersincrease operational reliability and lower your
maintenance costs, while significantlyreducing the risks ofunplanned production
stops, accidents, and warranty claims.

corrosion resistance (minimum 1,000 hours insalt spray test according to
ISO 9227) for steel washers
- Reusable
(depending on conditions of use)
- Custom sizes upon request
SUPERBOLT
SUPERBOLT MULTI-JACKBOLT TENSIONER
Superbolt was the world’s first to revolutionize nuts and bolts withthe multi-jackbolt tensioner (MJT) in 1984. Since then, Superbolthas proven its technology in tens of thousands of successfulinstallations.
Superbolt tensioners are designed as direct replacementsfor
conventional nuts and bolts.
These devices can bethreaded onto a new or existing bolt, stud,
threaded rod orshaft. The main thread serves to position the tensioner
onthebolt or stud against thehardened washer and the loadbearingsurface. Once
it is positioned, actual tensioning ofthe bolt or stud is accomplished with
simple hand toolsby torqueing the jackbolts which encircle the main thread.
The jackbolts transfer the preload evenly into the mainthread
and, consequently, onto the joint. The main threadis tightened in pure tension.
Advantages
- Tremendous
clamping force available
- Low torque
requirement – only hand tools needed
- Safe method
for installation personnel
- Quick
installation and removal
- Tightens stud/bolts using
pure tension
- Tensioner
flexibility adds elasticity to studs/bolts to create a better bolted joint
- Fits in
restricted areas
- Provides
even tension from stud to stud
- Accurate
within 10% of specified bolt tension
BOLTIGHT
BOLTIGHT HYDRAULICBOLT TENSIONING
Boltight solutions have been at the forefrontof the
hydraulic tensioning businessfor many years. The tools feature
advancedtechnology and are designed for criticalapplications within various
industries.
Boltight
solutions make it possible to tighten and loosen multiple bolts simultaneously
using high-pressure hydraulics.
Bolt tensioners stretch the bolt before the nut is
wound down under zero friction, ensuring extreme accuracy, speed, uniformity
and safety of any bolt tightening situation.
Advantages
- Tension is applied directly to stretch the bolt, meaning
that no friction needs to be overcome
- Applied load is very accurately controlled, as it is directly
proportional to the pressure applied to the hydraulic bolt tensioner
- Loss of load between applied and retained load after
tensioning is 20% less than frictional loss associated with torqueing
- Accurate residual load outcomes due to calculable load loss
- Tensioning can be repeated
EXPANDER
SYSTEM
Lug wear is a
common problem with all machinery. Repairs involve a costly, time-consuming
process with significant downtime and must be repeated several times over a
machine’s life.
With the Expander System, the repair can be carried
out directly in the worn mountings without welding and line boring – a
permanent solution to lug wear.
The expansion sleeves expand to conform to the wear patterns
and lock the system into place. There is no need for time consuming and
expensive welding practices. Expander is a long-termsolution and most repairs
are done in the field to minimize your downtime
ADVANTAGES
- Permanent solution to lug wear
- Quick and easy to install and remove
- Increased life expectancy of bushings, bearings and seals
- Increased safety against breakage
- Machine parts that are cheaper and easier to use
