Spindlelok®
Spindle Nuts

Spindlelok™ One-Piece Spindle Lock Nut

•	A unitized one-piece design for spindle nuts
•	Innovative one-piece spindle lock nut for Unitized and Pre-Set® hubs
•	Combines a flexible washer staked to a precision fastener
•	No extra parts or screws to lose, break or forget to install
•	Precision forged “ramps” on the washer and fastener mating surfaces are equal to the clearance between the threads creating a “locking” action that inhibits reversing of the fastener

 

Tested on Durability Vehicles at Leading Truck OEM’s

Spindlelok™ performed without issue. In laboratory testing, 75% to 80% of the application torque was required to reverse the fastener over the first “ramp.” Clearing the next ramp required similar force.

Manufacturers of Unitized and Pre-Set® hubs and the vehicles employing them are recommending aggressive torque be applied to the spindle nuts — 300, 400, even as high as 700 foot/pounds. Spindlelok’s robust design and precision manufacturing ensures their repeated use over the life of the vehicle.
