Locking Nut Bolt Fastener- Patent No GB2372304

[shadowblack1987]

People never heard of loctite?...

Thought about how you're going to produce those? Would be way to expensive compared to the minimal effect of the spikes. This is a stupid idea. Normal nuts and bolts work as they have to work. If they loosen it is because of incorrect fastening.

@haarsje  The gripping points or teeth on the nuts, bolts and washers on this idea would be applied in the same manufacturing process. A good company stamps and embosses their name on the rim of the nuts and bolts. By the way spring washers, crimped washers and most locking washers are " stupid" ideas they just flatten, they don't grip because they don't penetrate the mating surface.

@jeffwastebin What you say is not true. You clearly don't know about production processes. Your idea would be ridiculously expensive and locking washers are perfect as they are now. You must consider yourself a genius saying bolts nuts and washers don't work properly now and in the 100 years they have proven their point more times then you can even imagine. I stick with it. Looks "good' in a video, but it's worth nothing. Good luck.

Wish this invention could be on the market soon, which could save more time and make more convenience.

I have often come across a situation where fixings such as these could have saved me endless hours, not to mention putting myself at risk to try and tighten bolts hanging out of windows or climbing up a triple ladder just to tighten up a couple of bolts and thats as long as I have someone inside to help trying to talk or shout or use my mobile just to communicate, or installing items near windows just to obtain easier access in houses and flats that are impossible to access any other way.

This product shows great promise, as there is nothing on the market that comes close. When fastening with limited access, this invention will make locking nuts and bolts a breeze. Where is the manufacturer and/ or supplier, because I want some post haste..
