Description
Overview:
These Nylon Insert Locking Nuts are a mixed metric assortment supplied in a compact organiser box of 150 pieces. Made from steel with a bright zinc-plated finish, they resist rust and are suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Each nut features a nylon ring that grips the bolt threads to resist loosening from vibration and movement, giving reliable, long-lasting joints. Sizes included cover common metric fasteners from M5 up to M16, making the set useful across workshop, site, and garage tasks. The standard hexagon form fits regular metric spanners and sockets, so fitting is straightforward on machinery, automotive fixings, garden equipment, and construction plant. A practical choice for maintaining equipment such as mowers and compactors, and for general fabrication, brackets, guards, and fixings exposed to vibration.
