Systems and methods of coupling a nose cone to a turbine machine. Nose cone assembly weight and coupling difficulty are each reduced by reducing or eliminating the number of bolts used to mount the nose cone to the turbine machine, as well as the support or retaining ring. The disclosed nose cone comprises a plurality of hub mounting elements disposed around the circumference of a base portion, each of the hub mounting elements comprising a flexible flange extending toward the central axis and having a ridge protruding from a radially outward facing surface. The flexible flange is configured to deflect toward the central axis upon engagement with the hub.
