Category Details
A selection of Aerotight Nuts. Aerotight is a Registered Trademark and can only be applied to goods manufactured by the Premier Screw and Repetition Company Limited.
- All-metal, self-locking nut designed to stay in place even under severe vibration. Works by using a locking collar that is deflected to grip the bolt's threads, creating a "prevailing torque" that prevents loosening.
- All-metal construction allows them to be used at higher temperatures and makes them resistant to oil.
- Also known as an Aerotight lock nut or Stiff Nut.
- Any company infringing the registered trade mark may be liable to legal proceedings.
- Aerotight nuts should not be used on damaged or interrupted threads.
- When assembled on the screw at least two threads should protrude through the Aerotight nut.
- Advantages: Will not work loose. No other locking device needed.
