Nylon Insert Locknut Advantages

Nyloc nuts are manufactured with a small nylon ring within the metal outside of the locknut. This action allows the mating threads to be squeezed when the nut is tightened, creating a prevailing torque. The added nylon creates a gas and moisture seal, which can be helpful in specific applications. Standard and metric nylon insert locknuts are available in bulk quantities to satisfy any size job. Nyloc nut benefits include:

·         Effectively seals against gas and moisture

·         Enhanced gripping action

·         Will not loosen due to friction between the locknut and threads

·         Increased vibration control

·         Less prone to leaking
