Nylon locking nut is a fastener that uses the elasticity of nylon material to achieve self-locking function. It is widely used in various mechanical equipment, especially in situations where high vibration resistance and anti-loosening are required. Its working principle is to use the elasticity of the nylon ring to create friction between the nut and the bolt, thereby achieving the anti-loosening effect.
Working principle
The working principle of the nylon locking nut is to use the elasticity of the nylon material to achieve self-locking. When the nut and the bolt are matched, the nylon ring forms a matching internal thread on the smooth inner wall. Due to the elasticity of the nylon material, it will firmly hold the external thread, thereby achieving a loosening effect23. This self-locking effect may be reduced under dynamic loads, so other anti-loosening measures are usually required to ensure stability.
Application scenarios
Nylon locking nuts are suitable for various mechanical equipment with temperatures between -50℃ and 100℃, such as aerospace, aviation, tanks, mining machinery, automobile transportation machinery, agricultural machinery, electrical products, etc. Due to its excellent anti-vibration and anti-loosening performance, it is particularly suitable for working environments with large vibrations, and can effectively prevent safety accidents caused by loose fasteners1.
Installation method
When installing the nylon locking nut, you need to place the nut on the bolt and tighten the bolt to deform the nylon ring, thereby increasing the friction. When installing, pay attention to the inner diameter of the nylon ring to match the bolt to avoid affecting the anti-loosening effect due to too large or too small inner diameter.
