The kfn542-6 is an all-metal self-locking nut with integral captive washer designed for UNJ threads per AS8879 specification. Rated for continuous service to 450°F, this nut provides vibration resistance in aircraft primary structures and subassemblies. The captive washer seats against bearing surfaces to distribute load and prevent loosening under flight vibration and thermal cycling.

Installation requires tightening to specified prevailing-torque and final torque values per aircraft maintenance manual procedures. Suitable for critical fastening applications where reliable joint integrity is essential.
