Product Details
What does DIN 985 mean for this locking nut?
DIN 985 indicates the standard for a nylon insert locking hex nut. This nylon ring helps resist loosening from vibration, making it suitable for general fixing applications where you want more secure retention.
How does the plastic ring help stop the nut working loose?
The nut is a nylon insert type, meaning the internal thread has a plastic ring that grips the mating bolt as you tighten it. The resistance to movement helps reduce the chance of loosening due to vibration or repeated use.
Will it fit an M5 thread?
Yes. This is an internal thread M5 locking nut, designed to fasten onto an M5 screw or bolt thread. Always check your bolt size matches M5 to ensure correct fit and full thread engagement.
Is the zinc plated finish suitable for indoor use and light corrosion protection?
The nut has a zinc plated finish, which provides basic corrosion resistance. It is well suited to many indoor applications and general fixings, although the level of protection will depend on your environment and exposure.
What is the recommended bolt tightening approach?
Use a spanner sized for the hex and tighten the nut until it is secure. For nylon insert locking nuts, avoid over tightening, as this can reduce thread grip. If you have a target torque for your application, follow the manufacturer guidance for the relevant bolt.
How many nuts are included in this pack?
This product is supplied as an internal thread Ø M5 pack of 250 nuts. It is ideal for larger jobs, repeat maintenance work, or keeping a steady supply on site or in a workshop.
What are typical uses for an M5 hexagon locking nut with nylon insert?
Common uses include securing components on machinery and equipment where movement or vibration may occur. The locking action of the nylon ring helps maintain clamp force and reduces the likelihood of fastener loosening over time.
