What is the "official" name of the washer that prevents the wheel from slipping off the end of the axle?

(I've describee the washer at Lowes, Home Depot or Ace Hardware but no one knows what I'm talking about)

I've put the wheel onto the axle. What is the "official" name of the washer that's pounded onto the axle that prevents the wheel from slipping off the end of the axle?

Called "Push Nut Cap for UNthreaded Axle"

See picture at

The Push Nut Cap fits on the end of the axle.

I need a "washer" that can be pounded 1"-2" along the axle.

The "washer" I need looks something like an Internal-Tooth Lock Washer at

The diameter of the axle is 1/2"

GARYWC submitted this idea :

I have seen similar things being called "keepers" but YMMV.

Gary,

One picture is worth a thousand words. Post a picture of the old "washer" somewhere. At a guess, you want a push nut

Rusted?

Or take a picture of it with your smartphone down to the local Ace Hardware or maybe to the auto parts store. My younger co workers take and send a lot of pictures. That sure saves a lot of guessing.

Then post it here in five separate threads - that should increase your odds of a good answer.

"washer"

[bob_villain]

"Cap nut"

"Push-nut" or "retaining washer". I'm sure there must be some patent-holder's name associated with them similar as to Philips or Roberson screws, but I'm not aware of it...

Google is your friend. Why come here first?

[bob_villain]

If your cart/dolly/truck has these...it is light-duty.

There wasn't an "Edit" option so I couldn't change previously-submitted posts to provide more/better information. My only choice was to delete the post and post a new one.

[DerbyDad03]

Your original post was not "deleted". AFAIK, you cannot delete a post from usenet.

Your other "choice" was to simply continue the previous thread by providing more/correct info in a new *post*, not a new *thread*.

BTW, there'll be a selection in the specialty hardware selection boxes at any decent hardware store...

Then why is there a "Delete post" option.
