Tip of The Week

December 29, 2007

 

This week’s tip comes from our “It’s Tight Alright” file.

 

Here is a simple little tip to save some headaches.  There are many time when you would like to make sure that a nut does not vibrate lose or loosen up over time.  Ceiling fans, small motor mounts, automotive applications etc.  If you’re like me there is usually no “Loktite”TM handy when you want to make sure the nut stays in place.  Not to worry.  A drop or two of nail polish on the threads and then around the nut will give you the secure fit you need almost indefinitely.
