A self contained nut assembly to allow self nut locking and unlocking for use with a support member. The nut assembly comprises an upper nut containing a pronged locking sleeve. The nut and locking sleeve fit onto a threaded element projecting through a support member. The prongs of the locking sleeve are fashioned with feet for engagement with the support member to restrain selective movement therebetween. Arcuate portions of the sleeve are flared to fill openings in the nut thus locking the assembly in place. |
