Spotted something interesting - anti-vibration washer
not seen these before:
from RS, M3 to M20
Nordlock® Anti-vibration Washers
are designed to prevent the loosening of bolted assemblies due to vibration.
Used in pairs, their operation depends on surface cam angles which are greater than the thread helix angle of the bolts with which they are used.
* Suitable for use at all vibrational frequencies and amplitudes, with shock or static loads
* Unaffected by temperatures or lubricants
Re-usable
* Can be used with all HT bolts up to 12.9 grade
* Yellow zinc chromated steel finish

They are great, and do work very well.
Normal spring washers are more touble than they are worth, usually breaking and probably cause more loose bolts than they prevent.
norlock washers on the other hand are brill!
Retro RWD is the way forward...........automotive fabrication, car restoration, sheetmetal work, engine conversion
retro car restoration and tuning

Normal spring washers are awful. I have been removing them from my old cars for years and will not fit them.

PS when using M10 with nordlich don't be surprized if the spanner brakes clean in half these are really really tight!
If Lucas made guns, Wars wouldn't start either.
