Zusammenfassung:A thread locking mechanism may be include in a threaded portion of a removable part to enable the removable part to be securely locked to an assembly such that the removable part does not turn when another part is being attached or removed. The thread locking mechanism may also be un-locked when it is desirable for the removable part to turn and be removed from, or further secured to, the assembly. In some examples the removable part may be an oil filter adapter, the assembly may include an engine, and the other part may be an oil filter.
