Overview
Finding the right hardware should not be complicated. The RPM Self-Tapping Nylon Lock Nut Variety Pack puts three popular nut sizes into one convenient package, with compatibility for both imperial and metric metal fasteners.
Unlike conventional nuts, these nylon nuts have no preformed threads. As they are installed onto a compatible metal screw or bolt they form their own threads, creating a snug, self-locking fit that helps resist loosening from vibration. RPM has been manufacturing quality nylon nuts for more than 30 years.
