PREVAILING TORQUE a design feature of the lock nut produces friction between threads of mated components thereby increasing the force needed to tighten as well as loosen the nut. The two main categories of prevailing torque type nuts include: all metal and nylon insert lock nuts . 2. SURFACE-BEARING - a free spinning nut that requires tightening against a bearing surface in order for the locking mechanism to function. Two common surface bearing type lock nuts include: serrated flange and KEPS (K-Lock) 1-Prevailing Torque Type Lock nuts : All metal prevailing torque type lock nuts achieve their prevailing torque by altering the shape of the nut in some way - most commonly by distorting the threads of the nut, which then bites into the mating part when tightened.
