Description:
Split lock washers (also called spring washers) do not form a complete circle and the two ends of the split are offset to help them grip both the fastener and the mounting surface.
Locking washers are washers that are designed to prevent a bolt or nut from turning and loosening. Split locking washers use a “spring” effect to create tension between the fastener and another surface.
