Applications
The indispensable role that safety wire, also known as lock wire, plays in a vast array of applications cannot be overstated.
It acts as a fail-safe mechanism, meticulously designed for “safetying,” a term in Aerospace and Defense that refers to the secure fastening of critical components such as nuts, bolts, and turnbuckles, to ensure they remain locked in place despite intense vibrations or operational stressors.
The safety wire functions by forming a twisted barrier that counters the tendency of secured parts to loosen, providing an added layer of security to the structural integrity of machinery and equipment.
While its paramount use is evident within the Aerospace and Defense industries, where reliable performance can mean the difference between safety and catastrophe, the utility of lockwire extends far beyond these fields.
From securing oil caps and valves in automotive applications to fastening components in agricultural machinery, the versatility of safety wire makes it a staple safety device.
It finds thousands of uses not only in the most technical of fields but also in everyday life — around homes, in various workplaces, and across farms.
Inconel wire, in particular, is the preferred material when there’s a need to withstand high temperatures, providing dependable durability in rigorous operating conditions where lesser materials would succumb.
