This locks the nut in place by squeezing the nylon firmly around the bolt when tightened. Unlike a standard locking washer, the Nyloc nut prevents the nut from loosening under vibration as the nylon is tightly wedged into the bolt threads and provides resistance to turning when tightened.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe nuts are zinc-plated for increased resistance to corrosion. Their hexagonal shape is designed to be driven by a wrench (spanner) and provides excellent torque when done so.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAPPLICATION:\u003cbr\u003eWhere a permanent fastening is required and loosening must be prevented by movement or vibration.\u003cbr\u003eCan be used on most bolt products including HT Bolts, Carriage Bolts, Threaded Rod etc.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eZinc coatings prevent oxidation of the protected metal to create a longer lasting finish. It does this by forming a barrier and by acting as a sacrificial anode if this barrier is damaged. Zinc oxide is a fine white dust that (in contrast to iron oxide) does not trigger a breakdown of the substrate’s surface integrity as it is formed. The zinc oxide, if left intact, can act as a barrier to further oxidation, in a way similar to the protection afforded to aluminum and stainless steels by their oxide layers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHexagon Nut \u0026amp; Nylon Insert ZP M6 Bag 100\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ForgeFix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54232852496729,"sku":"FORNYLOC6M-TOOL","price":5.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/9257\/2761\/files\/a023c283-8d07-495b-820b-93e2c4c9d9f8.jpg?v=1745501494","url":"https:\/\/towntools.co.uk\/products\/forgefix-hexagon-nut-nylon-insert-zp-m6-bag-100","provider":"Town Tools","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
