Description
When you're tightening down bolts on equipment that shakes, rattles, and works hard all day, regular nuts just won't cut it. They'll work loose over time and leave you with parts falling off or connections getting sloppy. This nylon lock nut solves that problem by gripping tight to the threads and staying put, even when your equipment is bouncing through the field or vibrating under load.
What You're Getting
- Nylon insert collar that creates friction against the bolt threads to prevent loosening
- Zinc plating that fights off rust and corrosion from weather and chemicals
- Grade 2 steel construction that's plenty strong for most farm applications
- Standard UNC thread pitch that fits common 3/8 inch bolts and studs
- Easy removal when you need to take things apart for maintenance
Built for Real Farm Work
This size nut works great on all sorts of farm equipment where you need a secure connection. You'll find 3/8 inch bolts holding together everything from cultivator shanks and mower decks to loader brackets and implement hitches. The nylon insert keeps things tight through all the vibration and shock that comes with field work.
Made to Last
The zinc coating protects against the moisture and chemicals your equipment faces every day. The nylon insert stays flexible through temperature changes and won't crack or break down like some cheaper lock nuts do after a season or two of use.
Good to Know
These thread on just like regular nuts, but you'll feel the resistance when the nylon insert grabs the threads. That's normal and means it's working. Torque to standard specs for your application - the nylon won't interfere with proper tightening. When you need to remove them, they'll come off without destroying the threads.
