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 like it. Reusable too.
N-10, is that a Bearhug partnumber?

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.

i would buy one at the local bearing house. I just bought a N20 nut for 7 bucks.

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
