Description
Overview:
The Metric Nylon Insert Locking Nut, 'P' Type, Size M16, is a hexagonal steel fastener designed to keep bolted joints tight under vibration and load. Made from durable zinc-plated steel for enhanced corrosion resistance, it features a nylon insert that provides prevailing torque, helping prevent the nut from backing off during use. Built to DIN 982 standards, it is suitable for a wide range of construction and garden machinery, from compactors and generators to mowers and trailers. The bright zinc finish helps protect threads in outdoor and workshop environments. Supplied in a pack of 25 to support maintenance schedules and fleet upkeep, this product is a reliable choice for workshops, site engineers, and DIY users. Manufacturer Part Number: 903 0588.
Key Features:
- Zinc-plated steel construction for strong mechanical performance and corrosion resistance in outdoor and site conditions.
- Nylon insert delivers a secure, vibration-resistant lock without needing additional threadlockers in many applications.
- Manufactured to DIN 982 for consistent dimensions and torque performance across batches.
- Metric size M16 suits common heavy-duty fixings on construction and garden machinery frames, guards, mounts, and hubs.
- Easy to fit with standard hand tools; hex form provides positive spanner engagement for straightforward tightening.
- Helps maintain clamping force under shock and vibration, reducing the risk of loosening and downtime.
- Reusable a limited number of times; nylon insert wear is gradual, aiding planned maintenance routines.
- Supplied as a pack of 25 for efficient stocking, site repairs, and multi-point assemblies.
Typical Applications:
Used on machines subject to vibration and impact such as plate compactors, generators, pumps, mixers, mowers, lawn tractors, flail and rotary attachments, trailers, and workshop fixtures. Common on brackets, engine mounts, wheel assemblies, PTO and drive guards, chassis connections, and heavy-duty equipment frames where a secure, long-lasting lock is needed.
