TRI-DENT® Locknuts – Type SL: Reliable, Vibration-Resistant Thread Locking for Server Applications

TRI-DENT® Type SL locknuts are designed to deliver secure, self-locking performance in thin metal assemblies—making them an ideal choice for server enclosures, chassis, and rack-mounted systems. These all-metal, self-locking nuts feature a tri-lobed prevailing torque design that resists loosening from vibration or thermal cycling, common in data center environments. They ensure durable, low-maintenance fastening in mission-critical server infrastructure.

• Secure, Vibration-Resistant Locking: The tri-lobe feature creates consistent prevailing torque, preventing thread loosening even in high-vibration server racks.
• Compact Design for Tight Spaces: Ideal for densely packed server hardware where space optimization is critical.
• Permanent Installation in Thin Sheet Metal: Installs into metal as thin as 1.00 mm without the need for secondary hardware or additional locking features.
• All-Metal Construction: Withstands elevated temperatures without degrading—critical for thermally sensitive server environments.
• Maintenance-Free Connection: Eliminates the need for re-torquing or thread-locking compounds, reducing assembly time and long-term maintenance.
