Self-locking nut for aerospace applications has flat circular head on an extended bush with a threaded inner surface

摘要

A locking nut consists of a flat circular head (11) on an extended bush (13) with a threaded inner surface(19). The last approx. one third of the bush has four side slits. The inner diameter of the hole through the centre of the bush reduces from the base of the slit towards the tip (15).
