DIN EN ISO 7040:2013 Type 1 Nylon Insert Lock Nut provides locking action through a non-metallic insert and is suitable for connections exposed to vibration or shock. The nylon insert generates prevailing torque when engaging the thread, helping improve retention after assembly.
This product can be used in machinery, vehicle components, instrument brackets, conveying systems, and general industrial assemblies. Class 5, 8, and 10 options allow matching to different load requirements and are suitable where removable locking performance is needed.
Selection can be based on temperature conditions, material requirements, and surface finish needs to ensure locking function, corrosion resistance, and assembly consistency.
