1. Descriptions:
           
    A nyloc nut, also referred to as a nylon-insert lock nut, polymer-insert lock nut, or elastic stop nut, is a kind of locknut. It is a nut with a nylon collar insert that resists turning.
 
     The plastic insert is placed at the end of the nut, and its inner diameter (ID) is slightly smaller than the major diameter of the screw.
 
      The insert deforms elastically over the threads of the screw, but threads are not cut into the nylon.
The nylon insert locks the nut by friction against the screw under the applied radial compressive force.
Nyloc nuts retain their locking ability up to 250 °F (121 °C).Authorities disagree on whether nyloc nuts should be reused.
 
      Nylon lock nuts differ from a standard hex nut in that they have a nylon insert secured within the nut. The nylon insert is located in a tapered section located at the back of the nut. When you install the nylon lock nut onto a bolt or threaded stud, the nylon insert wraps around the threads and locks the nut in place. This gives a nylon lock nut a distinct advantage over a lock washer when the bolt or threaded stud is subject to vibration, as the nylon lock nut is unaffected by vibration.
