Stage
8 Locking Fasteners developed this patented
Locking Spindle Nut for the United States
military and the heavy equipment industry
to increase the durability and reliability
of special use vehicles. The Stage 8
Locking Spindle Nut System will work
on all spindels with a keyway and is
guaranteed not to fail.
The assembly
is comprised of 5 parts; a specialized
bearing washer, the spindle nut (which
can be set to an individual pre-load
value), a locking retainer and a
heavy spring steel snap ring. Additionally,
the assembly is available in a limited
space version.
The Locking
Spindle Nut assembly is easily installed
without any specialized tools. The system
is adaptable to just about any application
and specification. The spindle nut itself
can be locked in any position and will
maintain a required bearing preload value.
This extremely tough innovation withstands
severe reverse torque, a real plus when
you’re 25 miles away from the nearest
civilization.
When you
have a critical joint, utilizing a nut
or bolt, that absolutely must not loosen,
we will keep it tight – guaranteed! ™ ~
