Serrated Hex Flange Lock Nuts W196FL


Serrated Flange Locknuts are six sided internally threaded fasteners with a washer like flange built onto them that have a serrated flange. Metric Serrated Flange Locknuts are used with externally threaded fasteners to apply a clamp load on an object and the serrated flange is designed to keep them from loosening under normal operating conditions.

The teeth of the serrated flange will penetrate into the mating surface when tightened which will help to prevent the fastener from backing itself out. When the fastener is removed the teeth will shear off the material that they have penetrated into. Hexagon Flange Locknuts can save time on installation since they do not require a use of a separate flat washer or locking component.

Metric & Multistandard Components Corp. item number W196FL is available from M5 to M16.
