Washers for Hex Bolts
Retaining washers for hexagon head bolts with narrow shaft.
Narrow shaft bolts are preferably secured against unintentional loss with a retaining element. This satisfies the EU standard 2006/42/EG. With the optionally available retaining washer the bolt is permanently combined with the component before screwing in. The washer is screwed over the threaded section and can then move freely on the narrow shaft. The shaft is not damaged by e.g. notching caused by a spring effect. By manual operation it is not possible that the washer screws itself out again. However, by careful manipulation the washer can be removed from the bolt without damaging either.
