One Reaction Point. Maximum Control.
When two specialists in bolting technology combine their expertise, innovation becomes practical. Together with HEICO Group, PLARAD has introduced a new solution built around the HEICO-LOCK® Reaction Washer – designed to enhance safety, precision, and process reliability in demanding industrial applications.
The concept is as clear as it is effective:
A new bolting approach that eliminates the need for a conventional reaction arm. Instead, a defined reaction point directly on the washer ensures greater control during tightening and significantly improves repeatability in critical bolted joints.
What this means for your operations:
🔩 Precise and controlled torque transmission
🔩 Increased stability under dynamic loads
🔩 Reduced risk of slippage and component damage
🔩 Enhanced operator safety
🔩 Reliable, repeatable bolting results
In industries where bolted connections are exposed to vibration, heavy loads, and harsh environments, predictable reaction and controlled force application are decisive factors for long-term joint integrity.
Engineered in Germany and developed for real-world industrial conditions, this solution reflects a shared commitment to precision, safety, and uncompromising quality.
