The Junker vibration test complying to DIN 65151 is an excellent method for testing and comparing the security of bolted joints. The following diagram displays NORD-LOCK's superior performance in maintaining clamp load, and the unique wedge locking function of the NORD-LOCK washers is proven by the clear increase in clamp load during untightening.
