CASTLE NUT
Precision Machine Components
Description
A castle nut is a type of hexagonal nut with a hole on one or both ends, designed to be used with a cotter pin to prevent it from loosening under vibration or torque. Typically made of steel or other durable materials, castle nuts are commonly used in automotive, machinery, and structural applications where securing a bolt or shaft is essential. The cotter pin fits through the holes in the nut and the bolt, ensuring the nut stays in place.
Advantages
- Castle nuts provide secure fastening by preventing loosening with a cotter pin, ensuring reliability in high-vibration environments. They are easy to install and remove, making maintenance and adjustments convenient.
