Please look at this pic:

At left center is a yoke and thick disk with a bolt clamp. The yoke
and disk are grooved or racheted. I'd like to buy this component, if
possible. What do you call it? Where might you get it?

Thanks everybody. With these ideas and google, I came up with this
offer:

Question2:

How would you bond a 0.160 washer to a metal surface. See my first
post for the application.

That looks like the grooves are in a rectangular pattern rather than radial.
If so , you would only be able to lock it at 90 deg. positions. Is that OK
for you ?
