Best Practices 12. Instructions for Use 13. Field Fixes 14. Design Example Flat washers Flat washers ensure compression forces (due to installation torque) from the nut are distributed over a larger surface, preventing localized damage of the base surface. Moreover, it ensures the nut presses against a smooth surface, reducing the probability of relaxation of the nut, as is the case when the nut bears against uneven surfaces. Anchor channel systems consist of a group of anchors, channel profile, and matching t-bolt. The t-bolt hardware consists of a hex head nut and a flat washer. 8.

Therefore, it is important to use the washer as per product approval or recommended by Hilti. Figure 2.2.12.2 — HBC-C and HBC-C-N nut dimensions.
