Overview
Whittet-Higgins KMS-01
The Whittet-Higgins KMS series is a metric bearing locknut machined from corrosion-resistant stainless steel for service in corrosive, washdown, and chemically aggressive environments. It threads onto the shaft and works together with a matched MBS series lockwasher, whose tabs engage the nut to lock it in place while providing accurate angular positioning across numerous locking positions.
This arrangement secures, locks, and retains bearings and power transmission assemblies, preventing loosening due to vibration, shock, and torque without requiring any special installation tools. The KMS line is effective on both soft and hardened shafts, is rated to a maximum operating temperature of 300°F, and meets and exceeds ISO 2982-2:2013(E). It is manufactured in the USA and is 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.
