These locknuts are about half the height of standard nylon-insert locknuts. Use them in light duty low-clearance applications or jam one against a hex nut to hold it in place. The nylon insert grips the bolt to resist loosening without damaging threads. They're reusable, but their holding power lessens with each use.

These locknuts are about 10% wider and taller than standard nylon-insert locknuts and distribute the load over a large area. The nylon insert grips the bolt to resist loosening without damaging threads. They're reusable, but their holding power lessens with each use. Use them in light duty fastening applications, such as securing access panels. A zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in wet environments.

An irregularly shaped thread at the top of the nut grips the bolt for a stronger hold than nylon-insert locknuts. They thread on from the bottom of the nut, allowing more threads to engage the bolt before tightening for easier installation than center-lock distorted thread locknuts. The strength of the bolt should match the strength of the nut to prevent damaging threads. They're not reusable. Comparable in strength to Grade 8 bolts, they're about 25% stronger than medium-strength steel locknuts.

Steel locknuts without a finish are ready to be painted or finished.

Black-oxide locknuts are mildly corrosion resistant in dry environments and blend in with dark surfaces.

Zinc-plated and zinc yellow-chromate plated locknuts resist corrosion in wet environments.

Zinc-aluminum coated locknuts are more corrosion resistant in wet environments than zinc-plated and zinc yellow-chromate plated locknuts.

Cadmium-plated locknuts resist corrosion in wet environments and have good lubricity, so they thread on smoothly.

These locknuts have an irregularly shaped thread at the top of the nut that grips the bolt for a stronger hold than nylon-insert locknuts. They thread on from the bottom of the nut, allowing more threads to engage the bolt before tightening for easier installation than center-lock distorted thread locknuts. The strength of the bolt should match the strength of the nut to prevent damaging threads. They're not reusable. Made from Grade 5 steel, they're suitable for fastening most machinery and equipment.

These locknuts have good chemical resistance and may be mildly magnetic. They have an irregularly shaped thread in the middle of the nut that grips the bolt for a stronger hold than nylon-insert locknuts. Also known as reversible locknuts, they can be threaded on from either end. The strength of the bolt should match the strength of the nut to prevent damaging threads. They're not reusable.

Threads at the top of these locknuts expand to grip the bolt on all sides for a stronger hold than distorted-thread locknuts. The strength of the bolt should match the strength of the nut to prevent damaging the threads. These locknuts have equivalent strength to Grade 8 steel locknuts.

Cadmium-plated steel locknuts are corrosion resistant in wet environments. The plating adds lubricity, so they thread on smoothly.

About two-thirds the height of standard flex-top locknuts, use these in low-clearance applications or jam one against a hex nut to hold it in place. Threads at the top of the nut expand to grip the bolt on all sides for a stronger hold than distorted-thread locknuts. The strength of the bolt should match the strength of the nut to prevent damaging threads. These locknuts have equivalent strength to Grade 8 steel locknuts.

About half the height and 10% wider than standard hex nuts, use these locknuts in low-clearance applications or jam one against an extra-wide hex nut to hold it in place. Threads at the top of the nut expand to grip the bolt on all sides for a stronger hold than distorted-thread locknuts. The strength of the bolt should match the strength of the nut to prevent damaging threads. These locknuts have equivalent strength to Grade 8 steel locknuts.

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. These locknuts are 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 5 steel, they're suitable for fastening most machinery and equipment.
