Metallics JNN163D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size bolt does the Metallics JNN163D nylon hex nut fit?
The JNN163D is a 1/4-20 nut, so it threads onto any 1/4 inch bolt, rod, or screw with 20 threads per inch (standard UNC coarse thread in that diameter). It will not run on a 1/4-28 fine thread fastener.
2) Is a nylon hex nut the same thing as a nylon insert lock nut?
No, and this is the most common mix-up. The JNN163D is an all-nylon hex nut. A nylon insert lock nut (nyloc) is a steel nut with a nylon ring in the collar for vibration resistance. If you need the locking function and steel strength, order a nyloc, not this.
3) How many nuts come in a jar of Metallics JNN163D?
Each jar holds 100 of the 1/4-20 nylon hex nuts. The jar pack is the ordering unit, which suits a van stock or a shop bench bin rather than loose counts.
4) Can I use a nylon hex nut where I need electrical isolation between a bolt and a panel?
Yes. Being solid nylon rather than plated steel, the JNN163D does not conduct, so it is commonly used to isolate hardware, insulate a fastener from a panel or enclosure, or avoid galvanic contact. Pair it with a nylon washer if you also need to isolate the bearing surface.
5) Is the Metallics JNN163D made in the USA?
Yes, the 1/4-20 nylon hex nut is US made, which matters on public and institutional jobs carrying domestic sourcing requirements.
