Greetings
Once you tighten things up, how about running another nut against the nut holding everything in place. Tighten it it so it jams against the original nut.

Hi,
I understand that :-) yesterday around this time it was -42 C with
a wind chill of -54 C. Other than going out to take a few photos and
to clear the build up of ice on the furnace and water heater exhausts,
I wasn't up to any other work. Its warmed up today, currently we're at
-31 C with snow, with an overnight forecast low of -41C
With the alternatives I've listed you do not rely on compressing a
lock washer, reducing the risk of crushing what you've mounted, and
where there may be allowance for thermal expansion and contration (+30C
extreme max in summer to -45C extreme minimum in winter).
