Usages for Heavy Hex Thin Steel Zinc Nylon Insert Lock Nuts

A nylon insert lock nut has a nylon collar at the top that grips the bolt threads as the bolt passes through it. That friction helps keep the nut from backing off under vibration, so the nut stays put without a separate locking washer or thread-locking compound. Heavy hex nylon insert nuts are larger across the flats and thicker than standard hex nuts, for higher-load connections. The thin height keeps the profile low where clearance is limited, and the zinc plating adds corrosion protection.

Heavy Hex Thin Steel Zinc Nylon Insert Lock Nuts for all Industries

Machinery, heavy equipment, and industrial assemblies use heavy hex thin nylon insert nuts where a large bearing surface is needed but there is little room for a full-height nut. Blue Ribbon Fastener supplies consistent stock.
