Huaduo Nut SS304 Nylon Insert Nylock Lock Nut
What is a nylon locking nut?
Nylon locking nuts are specially designed nuts that provide additional locking effect. They usually have nylon material embedded in the threads of the nut, which expands when the nut is tightened, thereby increasing the friction between the nut and the bolt and preventing the nut from loosening due to vibration.
PRODUCT DETAILS:
What are the hot-selling sizes of nylon locking nuts on the market?
Common metric thread sizes such as M3, M4, M5, M6, and M8. These are the most commonly used standard sizes.
Common imperial thread sizes such as 1/4-20, 5/16-18, and 3/8-16. These are more popular in the North American market.
Small sizes such as M2 and M2.5 are also available, mainly used in the fields of electronic products and precision equipment.
Large sizes such as M10, M12, and M14 are also in demand in the market, mostly used in heavy machinery and equipment.
We support the customization of non-standard fasteners, and support the customization of fastener products such as screws and nuts in various sizes
How is it different from a regular nut?
Compared with ordinary nuts, nylon locking nuts have the following main differences:
Vibration resistance: Nylon locking nuts have superior vibration resistance, while ordinary nuts tend to loosen in a vibrating environment.
Abrasion and shear resistance: Nylon locking nuts generally have stronger abrasion and shear resistance due to their special design.
Reusability: Nylon locking nuts have a high reuse rate and can maintain their locking force even after multiple tightening and removal, while ordinary nuts may gradually lose their tightening effect after repeated use.
Installation and removal: Nylon locking nuts may be easier to install and remove than ordinary nuts due to their material properties, although this also depends on the specific design and application environment
In what scenarios are nylon locking nuts generally used?
Nylon locking nuts have been widely used in many fields such as machinery, electronics, transportation, aerospace, etc., and have become indispensable fasteners.
Electronic products:
Because nylon has excellent insulation and shockproof properties, it is very suitable for use in electronic equipment. Common application scenarios include mobile phones, computers, home appliances, etc., for fixing electronic components and casings.
Automotive parts:
Automobiles are often subjected to external forces such as vibration and impact, and nylon locking nuts can effectively prevent parts from loosening. Widely used for fastening connections in various parts such as engine compartments, chassis, and body.
Aerospace equipment:
Aerospace equipment has strict requirements on weight and reliability, and nylon locking nuts are very suitable due to their light and strong characteristics. They are used for structural connection of various aerospace vehicles such as aircraft, rockets, and satellites.
Instruments:
Precision instruments often need to prevent the position of parts from shifting, and nylon locking nuts can effectively solve this problem. Used for fixing components of various instruments and meters such as measuring equipment and medical devices.
Furniture and decoration:
The superior anti-loosening property of nylon locking nuts makes them widely used in the assembly of furniture, decorations, etc. Such as parts connection of office desks and chairs, household appliances, display racks, etc.
