Lock Rings Product overview A precision lock ring designed to secure threaded components and prevent loosening under vibration and load. Compact and reliable, these rings provide a stable mechanical stop for shafts, bearings, hubs, and other threaded assemblies. Multiple variants are available with different dimensions and materials; see the second picture of the variant for detailed parameters. Key benefits Positive retention: prevents rotation or backing off of threaded parts for reliable long term assembly integrity. Precise fit: machined tolerances ensure even contact and consistent clamping, reducing play and misalignment. Durable performance: built for repeated use and resistance to deformation in mechanical assemblies. Simple installation: compatible with common spanners and tools for quick fitting or removal. Multiple options: available in several sizes and material choices to match application requirements. Check the second picture of the variant for exact size and material information. Important attributes Function: locks and secures threaded components to maintain assembly position under vibration and load. Compatibility: designed for use where a threaded ring is required to retain bearings, hubs, collars, or other parts. Refer to the variant picture for compatible thread and diameter details. Size: multiple diameter and thickness options are offered. Exact dimensions for each variant are shown in the second picture. Material: offered in different materials to suit application demands. See the second picture for the specific material used in each variant. Performance: engineered for reliable mechanical retention and consistent seating over repeated cycles. Typical applications Bicycle and motorcycle wheel hubs: secures hub cones and bearings to maintain bearing preload and prevent loosening during use. Automotive and industrial machinery: retains bearings, collars, or gears on shafts where vibration could cause threaded fasteners to back off. Small equipment assemblies: used in pumps, gearboxes, and power tools to lock components in place without increasing profile. Installation and maintenance tips Clean threads and mating surfaces before installation to ensure proper seating. Use the correct spanner or tool that matches the lock ring profile to avoid damage. Tighten only to the recommended specification for your assembly. If a torque value is required, follow the equipment manufacturer guidance. Inspect periodically for wear or deformation and if thread damage or significant wear is present. Ordering note Multiple variants are available. See the second picture of the variant for detailed parameters including thread size, outer diameter, thickness, and material information to ensure correct selection for your application.
