Product Specifications & Vibration Resistance
The HDW01748 is a 1/2″-13 Coarse Thread Nylon Insert Lock Nut, often referred to as a Nyloc nut. It features a high-quality Yellow Zinc (YZN) plating, providing essential corrosion resistance against road salt, brine, and moisture. The integrated nylon ring creates friction against the bolt threads, preventing the nut from loosening due to the constant vibration and jarring common in heavy-duty snowplowing.
