HEX NYLOCK NUT

Short Description

Brand:- SAI or any general.

A plain hex nut holds a joint together, but it doesn't do much to stop itself from backing off under constant shaking or movement. That's the gap a hex nylock nut fills, with a ring of nylon fitted into the top of the nut that grips the bolt threads as they pass through, creating friction that resists loosening over time. Genuine Enterprises manufactures this fastener under the SAI brand, and a nylock hex nut is a common upgrade wherever standard nuts have a history of working loose, whether that's on a vehicle, a piece of machinery, or an outdoor structure exposed to constant vibration.
