Overview
Whittet-Higgins BHS-065 Bearhug locknut
The Whittet-Higgins BEARHUG (stainless) is a one-piece, prevailing-torque self-locking bearing retention nut that replaces the traditional locknut-and-lockwasher assembly. A stainless steel nut body works with an integral heat-stabilized polymer locking ring to grip the shaft thread and hold preload against vibration, shock and torque, without cutting a keyway or damaging the shaft threads.
Its balanced construction suits higher-speed, high-precision and corrosive-environment assemblies while providing infinite adjustment and preloading. The BEARHUG (stainless) meets and exceeds ANSI/ABMA 8.2-1999, carries a 160 degrees F maximum operating temperature, and is 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.
