Locking nut / head nut

Secures the mantle to the crushing head through the torch ring or clamping assembly.

Locking nut / head nut

Locking nut / head nut (Locking Nut)— Cone Crushers Wear part, position 05.

Installation and Function

Installation PositionAt the top of the crushing head, below the feed plate; the Locking Nut label in FLS section diagram B.
Main FunctionSecures the mantle to the crushing head through the torch ring or clamping assembly.
Replacement FrequencyLow wear exposure; replace for thread scoring, deformation, cracks or bearing face failure.

Materials and Mechanical Properties

ItemDetails
Material OptionsCast steel or quenched and tempered alloy steel of the 35CrMo or 42CrMo type, as specified in the OEM drawing
Typical Properties and Acceptance CriteriaA high-preload load-bearing part. Control yield strength, core toughness, thread accuracy, face runout, magnetic particle or ultrasonic inspection and surface damage. Threads must match the crushing head, with tightening and locking performed to the OEM procedure.
Principal Failure MechanismAbrasion, fatigue, corrosion or assembly damage; use photographs of failed parts from the site to identify the dominant mechanism

Material and Design Considerations

  • Identify material hardness, particle size, abrasiveness, moisture, temperature, pH, impact and tramp material;
  • High hardness does not replace core toughness, fatigue strength, corrosion resistance or high-temperature performance;
  • For composite, hardfaced, ceramic and elastomer designs, assess substrate bonding, edge protection, fastening and maintainability;
  • For parts that mate with shafts, gears, seals, roll surfaces or housings, control fits, tolerances, surface finish and assembly clearances together;
  • Assess material upgrades using cumulative throughput, dimensional wear, failure modes, product quality and downtime costs.

Required Ordering / RFQ Information

  • Equipment manufacturer, machine model, serial number, part number and latest drawing revision;
  • Part dimensions, unit weight, key tolerances, assembly and fastening method;
  • Current material, chemical composition, heat treatment, hardness and mechanical property reports;
  • Processed material, maximum particle size, hardness/abrasiveness, moisture and tramp material records;
  • Speed, load, temperature, pressure, process medium chemistry and continuous operating time;
  • Failure photographs, wear measurements, crack/fracture locations and current service life;
Materials and values are for preliminary engineering selection. Final chemical composition, heat treatment, hardness and dimensional tolerances must follow the OEM drawings and technical agreement.
