This 18-8 stainless steel hex nut has a nylon-filled collar at its back end. When a screw reaches the collar, the threads and nylon form a tight, frictional fit, restricting movement of the screw when it is subjected to vibration. While it is able to be reused more times than a two-way reversible nut, the nylon will begin to deteriorate at temperatures from 150-350 degrees (F). Designed for use with stainless steel bolts and screws with a specified minimum tensile strength equal to or less than the specified proof stress of the mating nut. The primary property of this nut is its corrosive resistance. Should be used with anti-seize to prevent galling. (SNLN8C188)
