Australian Distributors for Security Locknut Inc.
Worlds Strongest Locknut
Security Locknuts are designed so that the insert raises away from the nut body upon application. This creates “isolation” from the load where the nut body carries the load and the insert does the locking, regardless of your ability to achieve “perfect” preload.
Metal locking insert made with proprietary metal and processing techniques for maximum performance
Industry standard nut body with features for locking insert
Locking insert pressed into the nut body and ready for installation on a bolt
Unique - One Part / Two Piece Design
Locking insert lifts and separates from the main nut body on the base and side walls when the bolt is installed. This separation isolates the clamping load from the locking function
Unique - One Part / Two Piece Design
Features BenefitsEasy installation • No special tool required for
installationReusable • Can be reused
• Easy removal for maintenance and serviceability• No thread galling or cold welding
Vibration resistant • Holds bolted joint tight under heavy vibration conditions
Use in extreme environments • Effective in temperatures to 400°C• Effective in high acidic or other
chemical environmentsLocking in any position on bolt • No clamping torque necessary to
achieve locking functionOne part • Reduced installation cost
• Doesn’t require special machining operations, pin, or holes

used as a lug nut replacement on a wheel assembly (mining industry)
Method DetailsInstalled and tested on real world applications
Every year millions of Security Locknuts are installed on hundreds of products operating in a wide range of environments.
IFI 100/107 Standards for Prevailing Torque Locknuts
The Security Locknut meets or exceeds the Industrial Fastener Institute 100/107 Standards. This standard establishes the dimensional, mechanical, and performance requirements for prevailing-torque type steel nuts
NASM 1312-7 Test for fastener performance in vibration conditions
The Security Locknut has been tested using this accelerated life test. A summary of the test details are shown on the following pages.
50 on/off test Test measures the prevailing locknuts ability to maintain its function after installation and removal up to 50 time. Security Locknut outperforms all tested competitors.

NASM 1312-7 Vibration Test
Follow up Testing and Product Development:• After detailed examination of locknut conditions required to maintain maximum bolt tension under
heavy vibration conditions we were able to isolated design parameters that had the most significant impact. Follow up design changes on select products produced results on the vibration test that exceed all other products tested.
Initial Test Results: • The Security Locknut performs better than or equal to all other prevailing torque locknuts at
preventing joint loosening (other products tested include Nyloc, 3-point deformed, and Flexloc).• The Security Locknut out performs all other locknuts by staying securely connected the bolt after the
initial tension is lost. This has proved to be a significant benefit on installations where complete separation of the nut and bolt would cause machinery down time or a potential safety issue.
