Slotted Ring Nuts — Vertical Low Height (ALNvSR-LH)
Ultra-compact, all-metal self-locking nuts with a vertical slot design for tight spaces and low stack heights. Built for repeatable assemblies and consistent prevailing torque.
Design intent: Low-profile ring with vertical slots delivers secure locking in space-constrained assemblies.
Fit & function: Precise interference fit with controlled prevailing torque for vibration resistance.
Assembly: Lower installation torque than many lock-nut styles; ideal where access is limited.
Typical uses: Panels, covers, light structures, machinery, and maintenance retrofits.
- Compact envelope (vertical-low-height) reduces stack and clearance issues
- All-metal construction — temperature & chemical tolerant (no polymer insert)
- Stable prevailing torque across multiple re-use cycles (per spec)
- Material options for strength or corrosion resistance (A2, A4, AB, Class 6/8/10)
- Pairs well with fine or coarse metric threads in production or service
Select Your Material
Class A2 (Stainless)
General corrosion resistance • Everyday environments
Class A4 (Stainless)
Enhanced corrosion resistance • Marine/chemical
AB (Aluminium Bronze)
Non-sparking • Seawater compatible • Galling-resistant
Class 6 (Steel)
Balanced strength • Cost-effective production
Class 8 (Steel)
Higher strength • General industrial use
Class 10 (Steel)
High strength • Demanding assemblies
Selection & installation notes
- Choose material for environment: A2/A4 for corrosion resistance, AB for seawater/non-sparking, Class 6/8/10 for strength.
- Use tightening torque from your engineering spec; verify prevailing-torque limits after re-use.
