Description
Overview:
The M12 Nyloc Nut for Trailer Leaf Springs (MPN 763 003) is a self-locking nut for securing suspension fixings on trailers. It is a high-tensile component to property class 10.9 and uses a nylon insert to resist loosening under vibration and cyclic loading. Sized for an M12 thread (approximately 0.47 in diameter), it is suited to common spring eye, hanger and shackle connections on single- and double-leaf spring assemblies. This nut is widely used on Ifor Williams trailers and is also suitable for certain trailer coupling heads that specify an M12 locking nut. Designed for routine maintenance and replacement during suspension overhauls, it provides reliable clamp force when torqued to the equipment manufacturer's instructions. Use with matching M12 bolts/studs in good condition; replace any nut showing damaged threads or a worn nylon collar to maintain locking performance in service.
