A Latch Lock Nut is a Hex nut made from steel for durability. The lock nut works in conjunction with a threaded shaft in the latch assembly. It has a threaded internal surface that matches the thread of the shaft. The locking feature, such as nylon inserts, deformed threads, or prevailing torque designs, provides resistance against vibration, rotational forces, or self-loosening, ensuring the latch components remain tightly.Attributes:• Made of Steel which gives excellent strength• Manufactured to precise specifications and is built for durability and reliabilityApplications:A Latch Lock Nut is used in conjunction with a threaded shaft to secure components of latching mechanisms. As the lock nut is tightened, the locking feature engages, providing resistance against rotation and preventing unintentional loosening. This ensures that the latch components remain securely fastened and maintain the desired position or tension during operation.
