In the event an object should strike the sleeve in the unlocked
position, the sleeve will absorb the impact of F.O.D. by snapping
out of the unlock detent.
This characteristic
has two advantages:
A.
Allows the locking sleeve to hold its shape while protecting the
threads.
B.
Greatly lessens the impact on the inner shoulder that the locking
ring rides against. Should this occur, the sleeve is simply snapped
back into the unlock detent or into the locked
position.
