Nylon-Insert Locknuts
![]() |
Versatile yet economical, these are the most commonly used locknuts. The nylon insert grips the screw to prevent loosening from moderate vibration without damaging threads. However, the insert may become brittle if exposed to high temperatures. These locknuts are reusable a handful of times, but the holding power decreases with each use.
Medium-Strength Steel
These Grade 5 or Class 8 nuts are your go-to for fastening most machinery and equipment. To avoid stripped threads during installation, make sure your screw has a comparable strength rating.
Zinc-Plated Steel—A step up from plain steel, the zinc plating withstands occasional exposure to moisture.
