A locking fastener 100 is provided having a main body 101 with first and second axially directed surfaces 102, 103, where both surfaces surround an axis 104, and a threaded surface 110 and a slot 120. The slot 120 extends from the first axially directed surface 102 to the second axially directed surface 103. A first portion 112 of the threaded surface 110 is located above the slot 120 and a second portion 114 is located below the slot 120. A locking recess 130 is formed in the main body 101, and extends substantially parallel to the axis 104 and extends to or through the slot 120. The locking recess 130 has an internal threaded surface portion, which is configured to engage an external threaded surface portion of a locking member. The locking member passes axially through the locking recess 130 and slot 120, and a tightening of the locking member results in a relative axial movement between the first and second portions 112, 114 of the threaded surface 110 that locks the locking fastener 100. |
