A4 316 Stainless Steel Nylon Insert Nuts

M6 A4 316 Stainless Steel Nylon Insert Nuts Type T - DIN985

Our A4 (316) Stainless DIN985 Nylon insert nuts are a popular form of locking nut. They are also referred to as a nyloc, nylon-insert lock nut, polymer-insert lock nut, or elastic stop nuts. With these nuts the nylon insert wraps around the threads of the bolt or stud and locks the nut in place. This gives a nylon lock nut a distinct advantage over a lock washer when the bolt or threaded stud is subject to vibration, as the nylon lock nut is much less affected by vibration.

We also supply Nylon Insert nuts in a variety of grades, types and finishes such as BZP, Galvanised, A2 (304) Stainless.
