With a nylon insert that grips your threaded shaft or spindle without damaging its threads, these locknuts—also called shaft nuts—hold bearings, bushings, gears, and pulleys prone to vibration tightly in place. They come as one piece, so you can easily clamp them onto your shaft or spindle. But, since they aren’t made entirely of metal, they don’t stand up to heat as well as all-metal locknuts. Slots in their sides mean you can tighten and loosen them with a spanner wrench or spanner socket. Their face is also chamfered to help keep the size and weight of your assembly at a minimum. All meet international standards for bearing locknut dimensions.

Screw these clamps directly into a tapped hole and use air pressure to quickly and consistently clamp and release parts when welding. Compact and lightweight, these clamps are easy to move and reposition when welding. They’re also known as swing clamps. Connect these clamps to a control valve and air line. When pressure is applied, the arm on these clamps rotates 90° into position over your workpiece before clamping down. When pressure is released, the arm rises and rotates out of the way, so you can load or unload parts.

Replacement Arms—Replacement arms (sold separately) do not include a holding screw. Extended arms (sold separately) give your clamp a longer reach than standard arms. However, you’ll have to use lower pressure, which means the actual clamping force will be lower than the clamp’s listed rating.

Arm Adapters—Add an arm adapter to mount your own custom-machined arm.
