Slotted Nuts
Castle nuts and slotted hex nuts for cotter pin locking applications




Product Overview
Slotted Nuts
Our castle nuts (also called slotted nuts) feature longitudinal slots cut through the top of the nut that align with a hole drilled through the mating bolt, allowing a cotter pin to pass through and secure the assembly. This provides a reliable locking mechanism ideal for mechanical joints subject to alternating loads and vibration.
