About Push Nuts

Push Nuts (also called Starlock washers) are self-locking retainers that push onto a smooth, unthreaded shaft and grip it with sprung internal teeth. No thread, no tooling. Once installed, the teeth dig into the shaft and resist back-off; removal is one-way (destructive). Used for low-cost axle retention on wheels, hinge pin retention, toy and hobby assembly, conduit retention.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is this and how does it work?
A Push Nut (also called a Starlock washer): a self-locking retainer that pushes onto a smooth, unthreaded shaft and grips it with sprung internal teeth.

No thread, no tools required for install. The teeth dig into the shaft and resist back-off. Removal is destructive: the teeth deform and the nut cannot be reused.

How do I install it?
Push onto the shaft by hand or with a flat-blade press until it seats against the part being retained.

The internal teeth bite as the nut is pushed on. Once fully seated, the teeth lock against any back-off direction. Cannot be tightened or repositioned after install.

Is it reusable?
No. Push nuts are one-way fasteners. The teeth deform on installation and will not grip again on a second install.

Removal usually destroys the push nut. Use a fresh nut on reassembly.

What size shaft / hole does this fit?
Refer to the product name and dimensions. Sizing is product-specific.

Push nuts: match nominal diameter to shaft diameter for a tight grip. R clips and linch pins: match the wire / pin diameter to the host hole and the working length to the shaft thickness.

What material / strength?
Refer to the product title for the property class and the head marking for the grade.

See the head marking chart and full strength table on our site for the full conversion table.

Where is this typically used?
Axle retention on toy and hobby wheels, hinge pin retention, low-cost retention on appliances and stationery, cable-routing and conduit retention.

Push nuts are the cheapest possible retainer, used where the assembly is unlikely to come apart and where a more expensive retainer is unjustified.


How to Measure

Sizing Push nuts are sized by the shaft diameter they grip. Match the push nut to the diameter of the stud or shaft you are retaining - push nuts have no length and are not measured end to end.
