You were on the wrong site for prices, DoN. hfUSA vs. hf. On hfUSA, they only show during checkout.

-- Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and however early a man's training begins, it is probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly. -- Thomas H.

N-10 is a standard industry description. It is a strange thread being 1.967in. o.d. and 18 tpi! The bearing this one is intended for is 50mm bore. Look in MH for locknuts and you'll find a listing of these sizes. This is a nice schoolhouse lesson, btw.... What is the problem, what is a viable solution, how do you machine it? ;>)) phil

I would make one 2" long. Support it in the lathe and bore it out then thread. Then shape the external face and cut off the other.

The standard N-10 locknut will not stay put on the bearing of a log truck loader clam, unless of course you weld it in place. ;>)) Mine won't back off but is far more expensive to make. And in the long haul is far far cheaper. When that cheap POS nut fails you're looking at possibly $3k in damages! Take your pick.... phil
