Our Nylon Lock Hex Nuts High, also known as High Nyloc Nuts or High Nylock Nuts, are manufactured to DIN 982. Nylon Locking Nuts are nuts that increase friction in the thread to prevent the nut from loosening itself. The friction is caused by the nylon prevailing torque element in the nut, which results in axial and/or radial clamping in the bolted connection.The High Nylon Lock Nuts are taller than our standard Nylon Lock Nuts.
Most commonly used in conjunction with Bolts and Machine Screws, these products are used to hold fasteners in place, joining two or more parts together. We also offer Flanged Nylon Lock Nuts.
Our Nylon Lock Hex Nuts are available in A2 (Equivalant to 304) or A4 (Equivalent to 316 Marine Grade) Stainless Steel in metric sizes from M4 to M24. For our full selection of sizes and materials see the product table displayed below, or get in touch with a member of our staff.
