What is this small part and where can I get some?
I'm referring to the dark nut that sits on the inside of the dropout. It's serrated to keep the axle from spinning as the track nut is tightened. Is it called a cone nut?
I need some (10x1 and 9x1). I called Zipp and they want $15 each for these bad boys

If you have a relationship with the local dealer, they might scavenge a pair off a dead wheel when the opportunity arises. Otherwise, shop all the sites that sell small parts and look for "cone lock nuts", under hub parts.

They are part of the hub. I'm at a loss as to why you'd need "some" unless you're trying to rebuild a few older hubs.
And yeah, if that's the case then haunt your local bike shops. Most of them will have a junk box or two that you can scrounge thru. Bring the axles so you can test fit the locking nuts to them.

The OP should be able to verify this easily.

No. It's just a locknut. With what looks like deeper serrations so that a track hub will not slip on bad dropouts. The zipp website almost shows it to be some sort of proprietary cone/locknut combo - not quite sure https://www.zipp.com/support/maintena...-axle-kits.php

That's not the part I need. The part I need isn't as long. The part I need (in the original post) comes separate and is just bigger than the thickness of a nickel.

I looked on the diagram for the Dura Ace 7600 (high flange) track hub and it's simply called "Lock Nut".
It's #3 on this PDF: https://techdocs.shimano.com/media/te...9830672572.pdf
Anyone know where I can order Shimano small parts?
EDIT: I linked to the wrong PDF.

I'd say you could use any old knurled locknut with the same thread dimensions, or just throw on some knurled washers.
Do track bikes have to use wheelnuts?
I reckon allen-head skewers would be worth a try; heaps easier if the rear one grips hard enough... and a definite shoo-in for the front. If it's legal...

You don't need a shimano specific locknut. You do need to know the the axle diameter and pitch, shimano will be 10x1 and the thickness of the locknut - is the zipp the same axle wise? Dura ace track axle locknuts will retail for around $10. Any shop can order shimano small parts
