Abstract
A two-part device arranged for threaded assembly comprising a first part having a first threaded section provided on an external generally cylindrical surface and a second part having a second threaded section arranged for threaded engagement with the first threaded section and provided on an internal generally cylindrical surface. A locking opening is provided on the first or second part and a corresponding locking protrusion is provided on the other of the first or second part. When the first and second parts are threaded together by means of the first and second threaded sections, the locking opening and locking protrusion are drawn closer together and upon reaching a threshold the locking protrusion engages with the locking opening. This inhibits the first and second parts from being threadedly disengaged.
