Product overview

Specify the insert and service conditions

A nylon insert creates prevailing torque as the mating bolt passes through the locking section. The application temperature, chemicals, installation method and reuse expectations influence product selection.

Thread fit, property class and surface finish must still be matched to the mating bolt. Confirm any required prevailing-torque testing in the RFQ.

What to include in your RFQ

  • DIN 985 edition or approved drawing
  • Thread diameter, pitch and tolerance
