Locking Washers
Locking Washers of the MB, MBL and W designs are used with the smaller nuts, while locking clips of the MS design and Locking Plates of the P design are used with larger nuts.
Locking Washers are used to engage a groove in the shaft and secure the Lock Nut in position. When a washer with increased strength is needed, the MB..A design locking washer is the ideal choice.
Locking Clips are attached to the Shaft Nut using a screw with a hexagonal head.
Locking Plates are attached in the same way as the Locking Clips and are also supplied with a steel wire to pass through the holes in the head of each screw. The ends of the wire should be twisted together to prevent loosening of the screws.
