Bearing (also referred to as shaft nuts) locknuts provide a positive rotational lock on rotating bearing shafts. They provide resistance against vibration and are also used when precise torque settings are needed. These nuts use a thin round nut in combination with a tab-lock washer and can be self-locking or non-locking. The nut is tightened by use of the external slots.

K-Fast™ nuts are high strength, vibration-resistant, self-locking fasteners that offer fast, reliable and repetitive installations with K-Fast™ tooling. Many lightweight designs are available, and features include self- sealing; self- aligning; and a counterbore that accommodates variations in structure thickness and oversize repair fasteners. The K-Fast™ nuts can be spindled for use in automatic tools.

Here is a selection of products that fall outside of the usual product descriptions, such as Barrel nuts; high strength (up to 240 KSI) used in locations where wrenching space is not available for regular nuts and are excellent for tension applications.   Please contact Technical Support for more information.
