LOCK - WIRE (Mitsubishi MB0551066)

A damaged lock wire can lead to fastener loosening under vibration. During inspection, a lock wire may show signs of wear or deformation. The lock wire's plain mechanical function is to secure threaded fasteners by passing through holes and being twisted. A concrete generic failure consequence is that a broken lock wire can allow a fastener to back out completely, causing component separation. Keeping a lock wire in sound condition helps maintain fastener retention in critical assemblies. This aftermarket replacement part references Mitsubishi catalog number MB0551066.
