The washer has a helical (split) design, allowing it to exert continuous spring tension against the nut and bolt. This prevents loosening and maintains a firm, long-lasting connection, even under heavy mechanical stress. It is commonly used in machinery, construction, automotive, electrical installations, industrial assemblies, and outdoor structural applications.
