Review on 5-Pack Shorpioen 3/4-10 NE Nylon Insert Hex Lock Nut, 18-8 Stainless Steel, BC-75NS188 by Nathan Tsugawa

Locknuts - Fasteners

Used with #10-24 stainless steel screws and stainless steel washers to attach a new humidifier to the metal top of my oven. I didn't want to rely on regular sheet metal screws not loosening over time.

Pros
  • For use with machine screws and bolts of similar material. It can be reused more times than a double-sided reversible nut. Nylon steel insert locknuts are cheaper than class C locknuts for automation. However, nylon begins to degrade at temperatures between 150˚-350˚F.
Cons
  • The list is getting long.
