I had trouble with the real holder in a wire feed MIG welder. The wing nut would tighten itself against the spring that offered friction to keep the reel of wire from coasting during the starts and stops of the feeder. I tried several kinds of metal and plastic type washers. and all transferred enough friction to the wing nut that It would tighten. I finally has success with a grade 8 hardness washer. If nothing else works, try some of them.
