Nylock Nut – Vibration-Resistant & Self-Locking Fastener Nylock Nuts, also known as Nylon Insert Lock Nuts, are specially designed fasteners that prevent loosening caused by vibration, shock, or movement. They feature a nylon ring insert at the top of the nut, which grips the bolt threads tightly, providing a secure and reliable locking action. Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel (SS 304 / SS 316), Nylock Nuts offer excellent strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. The nylon insert does not damage the bolt threads and allows for reusable fastening while maintaining strong locking performance.
