Overview
Whittet-Higgins BAST-04 Bearing assembly socket
The Whittet-Higgins BAST series is a small-profile bearing assembly socket (installation tool) intended for the company's reduced-diameter NT (basic) and PT (precision) small-profile inch-thread bearing locknuts and matching WT/PWT lockwashers. Like the standard BAS line, the socket encapsulates the outside diameter of the locknut and drives all four spanner slots simultaneously through hardened pins, while a square drive connects to standard ratchets, torque wrenches and pneumatic drivers for accurate, damage-free preloading and securing of bearings. BAST-04 is one size within this small-profile socket series.
Key features
- Encapsulates the locknut outside diameter to eliminate slipping and reduce injury risk
- High-strength four-pin drive applies even force to all four spanner slots at once
- Square drive connects to standard ratchets, torque wrenches and pneumatic drivers
- Enables accurate adjusting and preloading without damaging the locknut, bearing or assembly
- Sized for small-profile NT and PT reduced-diameter inch-thread bearing locknuts
- Base socket carbon steel with hardened tool-steel drive pins
- Maximum operating temperature 300 °F (149 °C)
- Manufactured in the USA and RoHS compliant

About the brand
About Whittet-Higgins
Bearing locknuts, lockwashers and retaining devices from Rhode Island since 1914.
Henry Whittet and John Higgins founded the Whittet-Higgins Manufacturing Company in 1914 in the basement of a mill on Congress Avenue in Providence, Rhode Island, making super-precision bearing retaining components and machined parts for local machine builders such as Brown & Sharpe.
In 1967 the company was sold to a young mechanical engineer, and in 1969 it moved to 33 Higginson Avenue in Central Falls, Rhode Island, where it still makes its products. Its first line of 66 locknuts and lockwashers has grown to more than 4,300 standard parts, made on robotic CNC systems.
Besides the standard N/AN and KM locknuts with W and MB lockwashers, Whittet-Higgins makes its own self-locking designs: Bearhug prevailing-torque locknuts, Bearlok, Shoelok and Tangentlok clamping locknuts, clampnuts and splitnuts, plus adapter sets, clamp collars and installation tools. The company is family owned and operated.
