Metric Class 8 All Metal Locknut, DIN 980 V, Zinc-Yellow CR+6 & Wax
Our Metric Class 8 All‑Metal Locknuts manufactured to DIN 980 V with Zinc‑Yellow CR+6 and Wax coating are high‑strength fastening components engineered for reliable locking performance in vibration‑prone and high‑load applications. Produced from carbon steel and heat‑treated to property class 8, these locknuts provide dependable tensile strength and durability for demanding mechanical and industrial assemblies.
The DIN 980 V all‑metal locking design utilizes controlled thread deformation to create prevailing torque, helping prevent loosening under vibration, shock, and dynamic loads. As an all‑metal locknut, this design maintains locking effectiveness in elevated temperatures and harsh environments where nylon insert locknuts are not suitable. The Zinc‑Yellow CR+6 finish offers enhanced corrosion resistance and a distinctive yellow appearance, while the added wax coating improves installation consistency by reducing friction and stabilizing torque values.
Designed for performance and reliability, DIN 980 V Class 8 Zinc‑Yellow All‑Metal Locknuts with Wax are commonly used in automotive assemblies, machinery, equipment manufacturing, structural components, and industrial maintenance applications. The prevailing‑torque locking feature ensures long‑term joint security without relying on additional locking elements, while the wax coating supports smoother installation and repeatable torque control. Available in a wide range of metric thread sizes, these locknuts provide a robust fastening solution for OEM production, repair, and service operations where strength, vibration resistance, and corrosion protection are required.
