Vibration-Proof Fastener
Vibration-Proof Fastener
(OP)
I just saw an advertisement for Permanent Technologies, Inc. Permanentech Vibration-Proof Fastener. Any opinions on this? How should this technology compare to Huck fastening systems?
The advertisement and information on this product can be found at:
www.permanentech.com
I see how it works, I would just like to know what others think about it.

I find your post interesting especially since I was looking at the Permanentech Nut system during the last quarter of 2002 comparing it to some other thread locking mechanisms. Check out www.Schirr-Lock.com or www.fastenertechnology.com for another locking nut system you might find of interest.
I have to agree with cim94sm3 that the Permanentech does not work that well with severe vibration on the Junkers test. It is also highly susceptible to loosening with temperature extremes if you do not match the COE of its material with the mating material.
We felt that the 'special tool' to remove it was a negative also.
Evilrod had the best viewpoint - is it economically competitive? In a word no. None of the new thread locking 'systems' are (yet). I am sure as they are developed further, they will be.

Did you ever locate a source to perform the Junker's test?
RE: Vibration-Proof Fastener
I was not looking for one. So, no.

If you are interested in having a company perform this test for you, try MacLean Vehicle Systems. They are a fastener manufacturer with this equipment in their test lab. You can learn more about them at:

The machine is currently manufactured by http://www.ptprecisioneng.com/vibrationtester.html
RE: Vibration-Proof Fastener
Thanks for the info on the test machine manufacturer. By the way, where the h@#$ ya been man?!?!?!
