A 10-24 lock nut used to secure threaded fasteners and prevent loosening from vibration. Simple, durable replacement that restores proper fastening where the original nut has worn or failed. What it does:

• Secures shafts, studs, or bolts with 10-24 threads and resists loosening under normal appliance vibration.
• Restores proper tension where a stripped or loose nut causes rattling or parts shifting.
• Helps maintain alignment of panels, brackets, or components that rely on a locked fastener.
• Small hardware solution for common fastening failures—no special part modifications required.

• Disconnect appliance power and water before beginning repairs.
• Use the correct 10-24 threaded fastener and a properly sized wrench or socket to avoid rounding the nut.
• Tighten to a snug fit—do not overtighten or force onto damaged threads.
• Inspect mating threads and replace the bolt/stud if threads are stripped or damaged.

Size: 8-18 x 1/2 inch.
