RS PRO Bright Zinc Steel Locknut Nylon Insert Size M10, Width 17mm, Height 11.5mm DIN 982 530-400

RS PRO 530-400 is a bright zinc plated steel locknut featuring a nylon insert for enhanced security against loosening caused by vibration and dynamic loads. This M10 size locknut, with a width of 17mm and an overall height of 11.5mm, complies with DIN 982 standards, ensuring industrial-grade quality and reliability.

Manufactured from grade 8 steel, the locknut's bright zinc finish provides excellent corrosion resistance, extending its lifespan in harsh environments. The glass-filled nylon insert deforms around the mating threads to prevent loosening without requiring additional adhesive, making it ideal for applications subject to severe vibration.

Locknuts such as the RS PRO 530-400 find extensive use in automotive assemblies, industrial machinery, and domestic appliances like washers and dryers. Their ability to maintain clamping force and prevent fastener failure under dynamic load conditions makes them indispensable in safety-critical and mechanical fastening tasks.

These locknuts are especially suited for joining soft materials such as wood or plastics, where conventional fasteners might damage the surface. Proper installation involves finger tightening followed by applying the recommended torque with suitable tools for optimal performance.

Note that the nylon insert's locking property diminishes with repeated reuse due to deformation, so reuse is not advised. This product is supplied as new, ensuring full functional integrity upon installation.

The locknut includes a glass-filled nylon insert to prevent loosening without adhesives. Constructed from durable grade 8 steel with bright zinc plating for corrosion resistance. Meets the DIN 982 standard for locknuts. Dimensions include a 17mm width and an overall height of 11.5mm.

Ideal for industrial, automotive, and domestic appliance applications where vibration resistance is critical. Recommended for single use as nylon insert deformation occurs on reuse. Compatible with metric fastening systems and sizes.

Ensures long-lasting secure fastening even in dynamic load situations. Explore more Locknuts and fastening solutions in the Industrial Tools & Equipment section at EnvMart for reliable and high-quality mechanical components.
