Self-locking nuts incorporate a locking system that prevents the screw from loosening, even in joints subjected to vibrations, impacts or dynamic loads. Thanks to their locking system, either by nylon insert or thread deformation, they prevent the screw from loosening and reduce the need for additional safety washers, optimising assembly time and increasing the safety of the joint.
They are used in sectors such as automotive, industrial machinery, metal construction, railways and agriculture, where mechanical requirements and safety are a priority.
In all cases, it is essential to observe the recommended tightening torque to avoid damage to the locking system and maintain the effectiveness of the fastening.
The different types of DIN 980, 982 and 985 self-locking nuts share a number of benefits that make them a benchmark choice for professionals:
