Nylon Insert Lock Nuts in Brass Commonly referred to as Nylon Lock Nuts, Nyloc Nuts, or simply Lock Nuts Nylon insert at top of nut prevents accidental loosening from vibration Brass nuts designed for use with brass Bolts & Machine Screws with matching thread sizes Durable Brass construction, commonly used for its look and physical durability A nylon insert lock nut is hex shaped, internally threaded with a nylon insert. The nylon material prevents loosening from vibration and cross threads to stop the nut from backing off of the fastener. The insert deforms elastically over the threads of the screw, but threads are not cut into the nylon. The nylon insert locks the nut in two ways. First, it forces the bottom face of the screw threads against the top face of the nut threads, increasing the friction between the two. Second, the nylon applies a compressive force against the screw itself.WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals such as nickel, lead or chromium, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
