**Nylon Insert Stop Nuts, Light Hex, Grade 8 Properties**
Description	A heat treated hex nut with a nylon filled collar at its back end. The nut shall be grade-marked in one of two ways: 1) With double notched corners, or 2) With six symmetrically spaced identical symbols on the chamfered surface on top of the nut. When the capscrew or bolt reaches the collar, the threads and nylon form a tight frictional fit, restricting movement of the capscrew or bolt when it is subjected to vibration. The nylon insert comes in various colors.
Applications & Advantages	Designed for use in structural applications with Grade-8 cap-screws or bolts which have a minimum tensile strength of 150,000 psi or greater. Some applications include engines, turbines, hydraulic cylinders, railroad and aerospace. Nylon insert nuts are not designed to be used at temperatures over 250°F..
Material	Heat treated AISI C1137 or equivalent steel
Hardness	Rockwell C26 - 34
Proof Load	150,000 psi
Plating	Usually supplied zinc yellow-plated. See plating page for more information.
