Nylon nuts, also known as nylon insert lock nuts, are a specialized type of locking nut designed to prevent loosening due to vibration or torque. These nuts feature a nylon insert that grips the threads of the bolt, providing a secure and reliable connection. Unlike standard nuts and bolts, nylon nuts resist loosening without the need for additional locking mechanisms. They are commonly used in applications where a strong and vibration-resistant fastening is essential. In addition to nylon insert lock nuts, other types of fasteners, such as nylon screws, offer similar benefits, including corrosion resistance and reduced wear. These properties make nylon nuts ideal for use in automotive, machinery, and construction projects.
