What type of bolts do I need

Anonymous — Sat, 16 Sep 2017 10:27:17 GMT

Hi hope you can help I have a dog grooming stand drier with long nozzle that moves up and down to position on the dogs coat. Recently the nozzle just drops down and won't stay up anymore. Ive taken to bits and tightened nuts but after 1 use it just drops again. Any solution of what nuts I could replace that allow movement but not so much as it loosens to much? The ones I took out have an Allen key end. The drier is 10 Years old and in perfect condition apart from this problem thank you

I really wonder what motivated you to ask this question on a forum for CAD software ?

Anyway, you may try Nylock Nuts. These are available either at your local home improvement center, or at McMaster Carr

@Anonymous,

As @TrippyLighting mentioned, this is likely not be the correct forum to get the best answer.

Nyloc nuts are an excellent suggestion. You could also try using the fasteners you have and some Loctite.
