What does '14 TPI' mean for this jam nut?

14 TPI means there are 14 threads per inch on the nut. This pitch offers a good balance between making adjustments and ensuring the nut stays securely in place.

Why would I need a left-hand thread jam nut?

Left-hand thread jam nuts are used in specific applications, often in steering or suspension, where the component it threads onto needs to tighten in the opposite direction of standard threads to prevent loosening due to rotational forces.

What is a jam nut used for?

A jam nut is typically used to secure another nut or component in place. It's tightened against the primary nut or threaded part to prevent it from backing off due to vibration or stress.

About this part

Product Details

Rock Krawler is known for making well-built suspension components for off-road vehicles. This universal jam nut is a small but important piece of hardware, often used in steering or suspension setups where precise adjustment is needed. It features a 1-inch bore and a 14 threads-per-inch (TPI) pitch, specifically designed for left-hand thread applications.

This jam nut allows for fine-tuning of components by threading onto a rod end or similar part. Its left-hand thread means it tightens in the opposite direction of standard right-hand threads, which is crucial for certain steering linkages to prevent loosening under load. The 14 TPI pitch offers a good balance between adjustability and stability.
