Spieth MSF series locknuts Spieth MSF series locknuts are assemblies consisting of locknut bodies and clamping screws. The thread inside the locknut body is interrupted by a groove, separating the locknut body into a load and a locking part. A diaphragm connects load and locking part.
In case operating conditions change, it is mandatory to check if the locknut is still suitable for further use. Spieth locknuts need to be handled with care, assembled correctly, and used as intended to achieve their full functional potential. Prior to working with our locknuts, please read these operating instructions carefully. In particular, please follow all relevant safety notices.
