Stainless Steel Nylon-Insert Lock Nut Grade 304 (A2) TITAN

Product information

304 stainless steel lock nuts are characterized by their excellent rust and corrosion resistance due to their high chromium and nickel content, making them ideal for applications exposed to moisture, chemicals, and outdoor use. Furthermore, they are fairly strong, formable, and lightweight, making them a popular grade of stainless steel for general use.

Corrosion and rust resistance: These are the most prominent features of 304 stainless steel.
Strength and formability: They are highly malleable and retain their shape, allowing them to be manufactured into a variety of devices.
Heat resistance: They can be used in high-temperature environments.
Safety: They are corrosion resistant, making them safe for use in general environments.
Chemical resistance: They have moderate chemical resistance, making them suitable for non-aggressive applications.
Lock nut characteristics: These nuts often have a nylon insert embedded in them to prevent loosening from vibration or frequent movement.
Suitability: They are suitable for general applications requiring durability and nut loosening protection, such as outdoor applications or equipment exposed to moisture.
Not suitable for harsh environments: For applications involving high concentrations of chemicals or highly acidic or alkaline environments, consider the more durable 316 stainless steel.
