3. Distorted thread locknut - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distorted_thread_locknut

   These are known as one-way nuts as the nut may be easily started on the male fastener from the bottom non-deformed portion but is practically impossible to start from the deformed end. As the male fastener reaches the deformed section it stretches the threads of the nut elastically back into a circle. This action increases the friction between ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nut_(hardware)

   A nut is a type of fastener with a threaded hole. Nuts are almost always used in conjunction with a mating bolt to fasten multiple parts together. The two partners are kept together by a combination of their threads' friction (with slight elastic deformation ), a slight stretching of the bolt, and compression of the parts to be held together.

   A fastener comprising a mated pair of screw and post (binding barrel), which are a machine screw and a nut that is barrel-shaped. The nut has a flange and a protruding boss that is internally threaded. The bolt (mated pair, screw and post) sits within the components being fastened, and the flange provides the bearing surface.
