Bearlok
Whittet-Higgins Bearlok for bearing & power transmission retaining consists of base-nut, compression-ring, and socket head cap screws. The base nut has a thick walled main body, a thin externally tapered back that is slit, and threaded bore. The ring has the same outer diameter as the main body of the nut, with a tapered bore matching that of the back of the nut. By tightening the socket cap screws, the ring is tightened against the nut. The tapered bore drives the sections of the rear of the nut radially inward, evenly securing the nut onto the shaft
Benefits:
--High axial loading capacity
--Balanced design for high speed applications
--Engineered to prevent assemblies from loosening from large forces of vibration, shock and torque
--Uniform 360 degree thread-clamping to center of shaft
--Longitudinal (Z axis) access to adjusting and locking of retaining device of the assembly
--Easier to install than traditional locknut & lockwasher
--Eliminates the need for cutting or repairing keyway in shaft
--Infinite adjustment and preloading capability
--Does not damage shaft threads when secured
--Manganese Phosphate for corrosion resistance
