I agree that ideally a thin nut should be placed first then a thicker fastener on the outside but with what we have they should be tight against one another, and not loose.
Thanksa lot, folks. I think studs are deliberately long to accomodate double nuts. Fairly common in the industry I believe. Agreed there are better solutions.
Thanks, Littleinch, but that link is down. [sad]
Hi,
A colleague told me it is not a concern that the below (secondary) nut isn't properly secure and maybe suggested it should be loose. I think they may be wrong. If it's there it should be tight, right?
Can anyone confirm please?
Thanks in advance!
