In the design, the bolt connection is necessary to have a gasket?
It is best to add a gasket, there is an increase in friction, it is difficult to prevent aging after the screw.
Bolted components can not be avoided by extrusion, and a flat gasket reduces the wear of the surface of the component when tightening the bolts, especially those of the aluminum material. In parts when the bolt is tightened by extrusion deformation or broken, the torque control is improper. In the mobile phone production line, a lot of workers to install mobile phones, some people do not tighten tight, some people will break the crack parts, so the production line are used to play the role of measuring torque wrench.
The bolt must not install gasket, join many planes and automobiles and ships, wind turbines, atomic energy equipment is not installed gasket, everywhere is whether heavy vehicles or small bolts on the wheel without gasket. Gasket is the name of the washer, flat washers, special washers, spring washers, washers, washers. Installed not installed gasket, what gasket, depending on the specific design requirements, to have the basis of choice. In general, the position of the bolt hole is very high, the bolt hole diameter is relatively small, with close to that level of reaming hole, install flat washer is unnecessary, it does not have the nut friction. For those with very rough hole bolt connection, such as with M12 bolt hole diameter of 16mm, 18mm, it should be installed flat washer. This connection is often a lap of the steel frame, the location of poor manual drilling equipment. The automobile gear box is usually a hole on the production line and the position of the hole is high, and the bolt hole with the gap is relatively small, do not install the washer, otherwise the smaller contact area of the nut, the bolt is easy to loose.
