Abstract
A self-locking screw connection includes a cylindrical thread section (130) and a nut (300) that can be snapped onto the cylindrical thread section (130). The nut (300) has a thread that is divided into several thread segments (322), and the cylindrical thread section (130) has a plurality of threadless chambers (134) that are spaced from one another along the circumference of the cylindrical thread section (130). The threadless chambers allow immersion of one of the thread segments into one of the threadless chambers for providing a self-locking effect.
