have you ever a threaded jar nut just break on you

I have, because I tightened it too tight. Just snug it up, and you'll be ok.

I got this replacement part because our jar nut had a crack in it. Not so much that it was leaking, but enough that we wanted to replace it.

Yes. My old blender had a heavy plastic nut. As the gasket started leaking, I would put the jar on the base and use the ridges in the base to tighten it very tightly. Never cracked. When I finally got around to getting a new blender, the plastic nut was made from a very different plastic and much ligher weight. It cracked while just hand-tightening it.

My experience has been no. I have a standard and threaded bar. They are awesome on the standard bar, however they are loose on the threaded bar.

This happened to me the day I got it. I called customer support and they said it's very common and you can't fix it without breaking it. It's just a piece of plastic junk.

No way mine broke after just trying to cut something that was a little Woody.i was very disappointed. Maybe I should have just cut the soft stuff with it but ...

There is definitely a design flaw in this product. This is the 3rd one of these that I have owned. My first one lasted for many years too, but I guess the quality has gone down. You have to be careful on what types of jars you use it on. It seems to work well on round jars, but jars with corners will cause it to break. That has been my experience. I wouldn't bother trying to fix it. Toss it and get another one or just go back to what you were doing before.

Not us. You may try adding some lock-tite or some sort of thread lock compound. If that doesn't work, just replace the lock nut itself.

Agree with previous responder, threads on mine also broke right away as if they were rotten.

Good grief. That sucks. I suppose it depends on which bit broke. I assume it's the reverse thread end. Maybe it snapped deep enough that another try will grip enough to pull the whole thing out. Most auto part stores will loan them. If not I'm afraid it's a head pull.

I had a similar experience and mine shattered after I tried to tighten up the adjustment nut. I was very disappointed with the sprinkler.

Does it haves threads in it? One of the nuts that are on the sides didn't have any threads on the one I got. I had to use a tap to cut threads in it.

That has not been my experience. Mine broke when I hit it against the kitchen sink accidentally.

That's the big hand tighten plastic connector nut, goes on those big square threads. The other kind you need a wrench and they have left hand thread.

I have had mine for a little more than 1 year and i have never had any problems with mine. Remember that the barrel sleeve nut does not have to be very tight.

I did have the tension adjuster go bad on me too, and I purchased a new assembly because the threads were gone. The new assembly has a slightly better design and has far outlasted the first one.

Mine jammed once, I didn't think it had a nail jammed but I took apart the nose and found part of a nail stuck between the pin and the houseing. I don't remember how it comes apart and all, but it's pretty easy if you're careful. I think there's one piece that comes off entirely, so watch how it fits so you can get it back together properly of course. So you could try that. Pretty sure you only need an Alan wrench.
