Locking Washers

Locking washers are used together with locking nuts for reliable axial fastening of bearings and other components on the shaft. Their design allows for mechanical locking of the nut, preventing it from loosening due to vibrations or loads during operation. They typically have an internal tab for positioning on the shaft and external tabs that bend into the nut's groove. They are commonly used in industrial drives, electric motors, fans, and other machine assemblies.
