Our locknut, requires a secondary locking Locknuts are used for many different component, such as a lockwasher. applications including turbo-machinery, gearboxes, transmissions, aircraft structure, The Shur-Lok positive locking systems aircraft landing gear and high vibration provide the most adaptable and balanced helicopter applications. positive locking systems available. The foundation of this family of parts, is our STA- Whether your design requirements include LOK system. The STA-LOK system uses high vibration, high RPM, superior strength, extremely small serrations in its design to reduced weight, high temperature or corrosion provide precise torque setting of the locknut protection, Shur-Lok can offer a design to this system has been the design standard, meet your needs. Our Product Engineering proven through out the years, in the rigorous Group can assist you with your special or operating conditions of helicopter gearboxes, custom designs, or you can select from our engine assemblies and aircraft landing gear. existing product series. Sizes ranging from .250 to 8.00 inches in diameter can be provided. Metric thread equivalents are also available. Locknuts can be produced from almost any commercially available materials. These include Alloys that offer weight, corrosion, strength and temperature benefits. Commonly used materials are Titanium, A286 CRES, Inconel, 300 series stainless steel and all alloy carbon steels. The 2 basic locknut types offered by Shur-Lok are positive lock and prevailing torque locknuts. Positive lock locknuts, compromise a family of parts that are designed to prevent any unthreading or backing off of the nut by utilizing a mechanical or positive stop. In order for a positively locked locknut to lose preload or locking function when installed, requires the shearing of metal. 1 LOCKNUTS Prevailing torque locknuts are exactly what This brochure illustrates standard series of the term implies. Unlike a positive lock, both positive and prevailing torque locknuts. prevailing torque locknuts provide a frictional We encourage the use of standard series when force or prevailing torque between the nut and possible as this eliminates the lead time the shaft. This frictional force is created associated with custom designs. In the event through interference between the nut locking that your application cannot be satisfied by a feature and the shaft thread. The resulting standard series, Shur-Lok welcomes the prevailing torque, resists unlocking of the submittal of your specific design criteria. threaded joint. In the event that an Shur-Lok has a comprehensive network of “untightening” force acts on the seated nut technical sales people that are available to that is higher than the nut’s prevailing torque work with you on your custom design. and seating torque, the nut will loosen only until the force is removed.
