A split nut is a nut that is split lengthwise into two pieces (opposed halves) so that its female thread may be opened and closed over the male thread of a bolt or leadscrew. [1] This allows the nut, when open, to move along the screw without the screw turning (or, vice versa, to allow the screw to pass through the nut without turning).
A split beam nut, also known as a split hex nut [1] or slotted beam nut, [2] is a locknut with slots cut in the top that separate the outside end into two [3] or more sections that are bent slightly inward, making the thread diameter undersized in the slotted portion.

A car hub showing a castellated nut cover and split pin (near center) Split pins are frequently used to secure other fasteners, e.g. clevis pins, or to secure a castellated nut, [6] or, infrequently, as a low-tech shear pin. Split pins are cheaper but less reusable than linchpins, and provide less strength but easier to install/remove than ...
The next-more complex method than the simple nut is a split nut, whose halves can be adjusted, and locked with screws, so that the two sides ride, respectively, against leftward thread and the other side rides rightward faces. Notice the analogy here with the radio dial example using split gears, where the split halves are pushed in opposing ...
Assorted washers: flat, split, star and insulating. A washer is a thin plate (typically disk-shaped, but sometimes square) with a hole (typically in the middle) that is normally used to distribute the load of a threaded fastener, such as a bolt or nut.
This thread form also allows for the use of a split nut, which can compensate for nut wear. [8] The line of General Purpose (GP) Acme threads (ASME/ANSI B1.5-1997) are not designed to sustain external radial loads and both the nut and bolt are, ideally, independently supported (the nut by a linear guide and the screw by shaft bearings).
