Nylon Insert Lock Nut Overview
The Nylon Insert Lock Nut, commonly referred to as a nyloc nut or elastic stop nut, is a specialized fastener designed to resist loosening. Featuring a nylon collar insert, it creates a secure hold by deforming elastically around the screw threads upon installation. This mechanism generates friction that effectively prevents the nut from backing off due to vibration or external forces, making it an ideal choice for critical assembly applications.
