When you’re dealing with implement springs that keep backing loose or shackle pins that won’t stay tight, this little lock nut might be exactly what you need. It works with the B-101 spring bolt to keep your springs and shackle links properly attached to their hangers. Once you’ve got it threaded on and torqued down, it stays put through all the bouncing and jarring that comes with farm work.
What You’re Getting
- Precision threads that match the B-101 spring bolt perfectly
- Self-locking design that resists vibration and won’t back off over time
- Proper size and pitch to maintain full clamping force on your spring assembly
- Durable construction that handles the stress of heavy implements and rough field conditions
Built for Real Farm Work
This lock nut is designed for tractors and implements that use spring suspension systems—things like cultivators, plows, discs, and other tillage equipment where springs help the implement follow ground contours. The spring and shackle setup lets your equipment flex over rocks and ridges while maintaining consistent working depth.
Made to Last
Spring assemblies take a beating, especially in rocky ground or when you’re working at speed. This nut is built to handle the constant flexing and shock loads without loosening up or wearing out. The locking feature keeps everything tight even when your implement is really working hard.
Good to Know
When replacing these, it’s worth checking the condition of your spring bolt threads and the spring eye bushings. A few drops of thread locker compound helps ensure the nut stays put, but don’t go overboard—you’ll want to be able to remove it for maintenance. Torque to spec and check it after a few hours of field time.
