Midwest Fasteners Class 8 Zinc Plated Steel Coarse Thread Nylon Insert Lock Nut
The Midwest Fasteners Class 8 nylon insert lock nut is a zinc plated, coarse thread steel lock nut built for applications where vibration or repeated movement can back a standard hex nut off its thread. This family is available across a range of metric nut sizes from 4mm-0.7 up to 14mm-2.0, covering 4mm-0.7, 5mm-0.8, 6mm-1.0, 8mm-1.25, 10mm-1.5, 12mm-1.75, and 14mm-2.0 thread pitches, so the right size is available for a wide range of coarse-thread bolts and screws. Across every size in the range, the nylon collar grips the mating thread to resist loosening, while the zinc finish gives the steel body corrosion resistance for general shop, equipment, and fabrication use. Every size in this line is manufactured in China and finished in a silver zinc coating for a clean, consistent appearance across a production run.
