Description
Overview:
Metric Nylon Insert Locking Nuts in M20 are hexagonal steel nuts with a captive nylon collar that provides a prevailing torque lock on the threads. The bright zinc-plated finish offers dependable corrosion resistance for indoor and outdoor use. Designed for securing M20 bolts and studs, they are widely used on construction plant, trailers, agricultural kit, and garden machinery such as mowers and compact tractors. The nylon insert grips the male thread to resist loosening from vibration and shock loads, helping maintain clamp force over time. Suitable for general assembly, maintenance, and repair, these nuts pair well with HT bolts, carriage bolts, and threaded rod. Supplied in a pack of 10 to support multiple fixes or full fastener replacements on one job.
Key Features:
- M20 metric size for common machinery and structural fixings

- Zinc-plated steel for improved corrosion resistance and long service life
- Hex form for easy installation with standard spanners or sockets
- Reliable retention without extra washers or thread compounds in many cases
- Suitable for indoor and outdoor environments on plant and equipment
- Consistent performance when assembled to the correct torque on clean threads
- Pack of 10 provides a practical quantity for maintenance schedules
- Compatible with M20 bolts, studs, threaded rod, and carriage bolts
- Practical choice for fast, tidy, and repeatable assembly work
Typical Applications:
Used on vibrating assemblies and moving equipment where standard nuts can back off. Typical locations include mower decks, guard brackets, chassis fixings, engine mounts, attachments on compact plant, trailer couplings, and agricultural implements. Suitable for routine servicing, refurbishments, and new builds where a secure, re-torqueable fastening is required.
Also known as:
Often referred to as nylocs, nylon-insert nuts, prevailing torque nuts, self-locking hex nuts, insert lock nuts, stop nuts, or locknuts with polymer collar. These terms describe the same locking principle using a nylon ring to resist loosening under vibration and dynamic loads.
