[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 2565456, member: 93138"] Sort of, there are "Torque to Yield" applications in the US and Europe. One time use fasteners carefully torqued until they do yield. There are also "Torque-Angle" applications where the fastener is torqued to some low point, and then rotated so many degrees past that point. Most lock washers aren't worth the trouble that they cause. Star type are particularly good at making an electrical connection, but none of them are terribly effective at locking a fastener in place and split washers are particularly good about breaking in service and leaving the fastener loose. What does XLR do differently from all of the other chassis mfg's, or is this a problem that they all suffer from? [/QUOTE]
