Value Collection 122595 Hex Lock Nut M16x2 Stainless Din 985

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 122595 is a nylon insert hex lock nut designed to maintain thread engagement under vibration, thermal cycling, and dynamic loading. Built from 18-8 / A2 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it resists corrosion in wet, chemical, and outdoor environments. The nylon insert deforms against the mating thread to create prevailing torque without damaging fastener threads. This nut is sized M16x2 with a 24.00 mm width across flats and a 16.00 mm height, conforming to DIN 985. It is installed by electricians, plumbers, HVAC mechanics, pipefitters, and general tradespeople wherever a reliable, reusable locking fastener is required.

This nut suits residential and commercial mechanical, electrical, and plumbing assemblies where corrosion resistance and vibration resistance are priorities. Typical applications include equipment mounting, pipe hanger systems, conduit support structures, fan assemblies, pump bases, and any structural connection subject to movement or moisture exposure. The right-hand thread direction is standard for most metric hardware installations.

Key Features

• Nylon insert locking style provides prevailing torque without damaging mating threads
• 18-8 / A2 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and outdoor environments
• M16x2 metric thread, right-hand direction, conforming to DIN 985
• 24.00 mm width across flats for standard metric wrench engagement
• 16.00 mm height provides full thread engagement depth
• Bright, uncoated finish — no plating to flake, chip, or contaminate threads

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 985-compliant nylon insert hex lock nut for use with M16x2 metric threaded fasteners in standard trade and mechanical assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Power down or de-energize equipment before servicing any fastened assembly. Install using a standard metric wrench sized to 24.00 mm across flats. Nylon insert lock nuts are reusable but should be inspected for insert degradation after each removal — replace if the nylon no longer creates resistance on the mating thread. Follow applicable installation codes, including NEC, IPC, or IFGC, as relevant to the system being serviced.
