Abstract
An anti-rotation key for preventing rotational displacement between two threaded portions of a connector assembly includes a gripper insert and a body. The body features an inclined surface that is designed to engage with a corresponding activation shoulder on one of the threaded portions, creating a secure mechanical connection. Additionally, the body incorporates a recess positioned opposite the inclined surface. This recess is specifically configured to accommodate the gripper insert, ensuring a firm grip on the surface of the remaining threaded portion. To secure the anti-rotation key to the connector assembly, an elliptical opening is provided in the body. This opening is designed to accommodate a fastener, which passes through the key and is fastened to one of the threaded portions.
