V-Lock® Series – Patented Double Taper Lock 

V-Lock® Series – Patented Double Taper Lock eliminates fretting corrosion on properly prepared shafts. The patented V-Lock® locking mechanism evenly distributes force on the shaft. Mechanical withdrawal is offered on double-nut units for easy removal. It has twice the holding power of other bearings. All housings are manufactured from rugged steel.
