The K Lock Nut, manufactured to the stringent DIN 6926 standard, represents a high-performance fastening solution engineered for reliability and durability. Constructed from stainless steel, this flange nut with a non-metallic insert is specifically designed to provide superior resistance to vibration and loosening under dynamic loads. Its robust construction makes it an essential component in assemblies where safety and longevity are paramount, ensuring a secure and lasting connection.
This specific K Lock Nut integrates a hexagonal flange base that functions as an integrated washer. This design significantly increases the bearing surface area, effectively distributing the clamping load over a wider region and protecting the surface of the assembled parts from damage. The flange design eliminates the need for a separate washer, simplifying inventory and assembly processes. The nut is available with the option of a serrated bearing surface, which acts as an additional locking mechanism by biting into the contact surface to resist rotational forces.
The defining feature of this K Lock Nut is its internal, permanently attached nylon ring. This ring creates a prevailing torque, firmly gripping the threads of the mating screw or bolt. This elastic grip generates significant friction and a consistent counter-force that maintains clamp load, effectively preventing spontaneous loosening caused by vibrations, thermal cycles, and other dynamic forces. This non-metallic locking element ensures reusable and reliable performance over multiple installation cycles.
The application range for this DIN 6926 K Lock Nut is extensive, spanning numerous critical industries. It is ideally suited for use in automotive manufacturing, aerospace components, heavy machinery, industrial equipment, and construction projects. Its combination of the flange’s load distribution and the nylon insert’s vibration resistance makes it a versatile and trusted choice for engineers seeking to enhance the integrity of their mechanical assemblies.
The DIN 6926 stainless steel K Lock Nut offers a sophisticated and highly effective fastening solution. By combining a load-distributing flange with a high-performance nylon locking insert, it delivers exceptional security against loosening. This K Lock Nut stands as a testament to precision German engineering, providing designers and manufacturers with a component that ensures safety, reliability, and performance in the most demanding applications.
