Its fine-thread M80 × 1.5 profile provides strong clamping force and precise adjustment, ensuring proper bearing preload and stable hub operation. Manufactured from high-strength alloy steel, the locknut withstands extreme torque, heavy axle loads, and continuous vibration. Its robust construction prevents loosening, protects the bearing assembly, and ensures long-lasting reliability under demanding driving conditions.
By maintaining correct bearing tension and hub alignment, the axle locknut enhances vehicle stability, reduces wear, and prevents premature bearing failure.
