High-Strength Steel Nylon-Insert Locknuts—Grade 8
A nylon insert grips the bolt to resist loosening without damaging threads. These nuts are reusable, but their holding power lessens with each use. Made from Grade 8 steel, they're about 25% stronger than medium-strength steel locknuts.
Zinc yellow-chromate plated steel locknuts resist corrosion in wet environments.

Low-Strength Steel Locknuts for use with Cotter Pins
Secure these hex slotted nuts by inserting a cotter pin or safety wire through the slots and a drilled hole in your bolt for mild loosening resistance. They’re not recommended for use on parts exposed to high vibration because the pin is prone to shearing under prolonged stress. Height includes the slots. Cotter pins are not included. A zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in wet environments.

High-Strength Steel Extra-Wide Steel-Insert
Locknuts for Extreme Vibration—Grade 8
These locknuts are about 10% wider and taller than standard steel-insert locknuts. They distribute the load over a large area. When installed, the steel insert grips the threads and lifts away from the nut body, isolating the insert from the nut’s load to resist spinoff caused by vibration. They're often used in shakers and vibrating equipment. The strength of the bolt should match the strength of the nut to prevent damaging threads. Made from Grade 8 steel, they're about 25% stronger than medium-strength steel locknuts.
