Description
The Whittet Higgins BASM Series locknuts deliver superior performance for securing bearings, gears, and other components to precision-machined shafts. Designed for demanding industrial environments, BASM locknuts feature an axial locking mechanism that provides exceptional holding power while maintaining precise shaft positioning.
Manufactured in the USA, each BASM locknut is crafted from high-strength steel, heat-treated for durability, and finished with black oxide for corrosion resistance. The self-locking design eliminates the need for additional locking devices, making installation faster and more reliable in high-speed and high-load applications.
