In high-vibration environments, traditional locking methods present compromises.

Nylon inserts degrade, lock washers lose effectiveness, and thread adhesives need time-consuming application. As vibration cycles grow, these fastening solutions can progressively lose clamp load – and create potential failure points.

PEM RT® free-running locking technology eliminates these trade-offs without sacrificing installation speed and performance.

The PEM RT® thread features a modified flank angle that resists vibration loosening. The mating screw turns freely until clamp load is applied, then locks securely. PEM RT® standoffs significantly outperform split ring lock washers and thread-locking compounds.
