Self-Locking Stud

Self-locking studs are a type of fastener that are designed to securely hold two objects together. They have a unique feature that prevents them from loosening or coming undone under vibration or other external forces.

These studs typically have a threaded body with a locking mechanism built into the design. The locking mechanism can be in the form of a nylon insert, a serrated surface, or a mechanical locking feature. When the stud is tightened, the locking mechanism engages and prevents the stud from rotating or backing out.

Self-locking studs are commonly used in applications where there is a need for a secure and reliable fastening solution. They are often used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and machinery, where vibration and movement can cause traditional fasteners to loosen over time.

In the supply class "Studs" within the supply group "Hardware And Abrasives," self-locking studs would be a specific type of stud that is available for purchase. They may come in various sizes, materials, and locking mechanisms to suit different applications and requirements.
