A fixing device with a locking mechanism includes a bolt having a hexagonal head, a seat attached to the bottom face of the bolt head, and a washer to be fit onto the threaded shaft of the bolt. The seat has an engagement portion which is raised from an outer edge of the seat along a side face of the bolt head to restrain the free rotation of the bolt with respect to the seat, and an elastic engagement pawl outwardly extending from a lateral end of the engagement portion. The washer has a plurality of engagement grooves which are engagable with the engagement pawl, and an antislipping means provided on the side which contacts the surface of a member to be fastened. When the bolt is fastened, the engagement pawl engages with one of the engagement grooves of the washer. This prevents the hexagon-head bolt from turning in a loosening direction. A locking function can be added to the fixing device without additionally machining the bolt or a member to be fastened. The locking mechanism can be unlocked using a box wrench.
