Nylon-Insert Locknuts

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.

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.
