Description

A locking nut that secures threaded shafts and fasteners to prevent loosening from vibration and regular use. Fits where a small, self-retaining nut is required to keep components firmly attached. What it does:

• Threads onto compatible studs/bolts to lock assemblies in place
• Resists vibration-related loosening for more reliable operation
• Commonly used on appliance control or mechanical linkages
• Small replacement part that restores secure fastening where the original nut is damaged or missing

What's included:

• One locking nut

Install notes:

• Turn off and unplug the appliance before accessing internal components
• Match nut thread size and type to the stud before installation
• Use appropriate tools and torque; avoid overtightening which can strip threads
