Results of investigation of self-locking effect representing transformation of glide dislocations into the locked ones in the absence of external stress are presented. The effect was predicted theoretically on basis of a simple model considering superdislocation as a pileup, where one of the dislocations contributes to the locking of the other one, and, as a result, both are locked. The proof of the effect occurrence, namely, observation that dislocations elongate along prevailing direction, was experimentally revealed, including a plastic deformation and a subsequent heating without a load. To explain the set of experimental results, a new conception is developed: an effective force, being proportional to the difference of the depths of the valleys, appears, if dislocation has a two-valley potential relief. This force causes transformation of dislocations into an indestructible barrier. Consequently, two effects (the temperature anomaly of the yield stress and the self-locking of dislocations) are of the same common nature. Both effects were observed in the intermetallic compounds such as Ni$_{3}$Al and TiAl as well as in the pure metals such as Mg.

Keywords: automatic block of dislocations, superdislocations, sliding, yield point, thermomechanical treatment.
