Stainless Steel Hex Flange Nylon Insert Lock Nut DIN6926
Hex flange nylon insert lock nuts are critical components in high-vibration applications where maintaining tightness and preventing loosening are essential. They combine mechanical locking action with chemical resistance, making them a preferred choice across industries such as automotive, construction, machinery, and aerospace.
The Hex flange nylon insert lock nut according to DIN6926 standards, with a stainless steel body, provides excellent strength and corrosion resistance. At Flybear Fastener, we provide premium quality lock nuts that guarantee superior performance, safety, and longevity in the toughest environments.
Product Overview
The hex flange nylon insert lock nut is a hexagonal nut with an integrated flange at the base and a non-metallic (nylon) insert that resists loosening under vibration and torque. The flange serves to distribute the load over a larger area, reducing the risk of damage to connected components. The nylon ring adds friction against the mating threads, providing a firm locking mechanism.
Our DIN 6926 hex flange nylon insert lock nuts are made from durable stainless steel, ensuring superior anti-corrosive performance and mechanical durability.
