Should I use a lock nut with a washer or a lock nut with integrated locking in my application?
Both types of lock nut work in the same applications. Lock nuts with integrated locking don't need prior assembly but can come loose more easily under heavy torque, leading to extra maintenance. Using a lock nut with a washer like this one calls for more preparation but gives you a tighter lock for minimal maintenance once mounted.
