Mild Steel Nylock Nuts are a type of locking nut designed to provide a secure fastening that resists loosening due to vibration or torque. These nuts feature a nylon insert at the top, which grips the threads of the bolt when tightened. The nylon component creates friction against the bolt threads, preventing the nut from turning freely and reducing the risk of unintentional loosening. This makes them highly reliable for applications where stability and safety are crucial. Manufactured from mild steel, Nylock nuts offer good strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness. Mild steel is known for its machinability and adequate tensile strength, making these nuts suitable for medium-duty applications. Additionally, mild steel Nylock nuts can be plated with zinc, nickel, or other coatings to enhance corrosion resistance and improve longevity in outdoor or moisture-prone environments. Mild Steel Nylock Nuts are widely used in industries such as automotive, machinery, construction, and manufacturing. They are particularly beneficial in applications involving moving parts, heavy vibrations, or thermal expansion and contraction, such as engine assemblies, conveyor systems, and structural frameworks. Their self-locking mechanism eliminates the need for additional locking devices like washers or adhesives, streamlining the fastening process. Available in various sizes, thread types, and finishes, these nuts can be chosen to match specific bolt grades and application requirements. They comply with international standards such as DIN, ISO, and ASTM, ensuring consistent quality and compatibility.
