There are two pieces, sold as a single unit. You need two nordlocks, think of it as buying two halves. So a single unit, which consists of two pieces.
So lets' say you decided you wanted to nordlock your BP, you'd need to order two nordlocks, but you would receive 4 pieces of hardware.

No, the "single piece" is a single unit, two pieces. Nobody sells them as a single half. The "10 piece" bag is actually 20 pieces. They are considered a single unit as they are non-functional outside of a pair.
Grainger is calling this "NORD LOCK",....... but Granger's catalogue is a bit "twisted."

Yes, and if you search for "Nord Lock" on the Grainger site and scroll down, you will see every other picture with two pieces. Even if you order an M27 that's $45 for a package of 1, it will include both sides of the washer. They do not work outside of pairs. They do not sell them outside of pairs. Even if they are listed as a single piece, you will get a functional pair.
You seemed to be arguing that you can buy a single half. That is not true. So no, not $12. $6, for two washers, at $3 a piece.
