Value Collection NL500160Z-025B M16x2 Hex Lock Nut Din 985

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NL500160Z-025B is a metric hex lock nut with a nylon insert locking mechanism, designed to resist loosening under vibration and dynamic loads. Built to Class 8 steel with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance, this nut meets DIN 985 standards and carries an M16x2 thread size with right-hand thread direction. The nylon insert creates interference with the mating fastener thread, maintaining clamp load without additional locking hardware. It is installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and mechanical contractors across a wide range of structural and equipment assembly applications.

This nut is suited for general industrial, commercial, and mechanical assembly work where vibration resistance is required. Common applications include equipment mounting, structural steel connections, machine frames, and automotive or agricultural equipment repairs. The zinc coating provides a baseline level of corrosion protection appropriate for indoor and moderately exposed environments. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 25 pieces per order.

Key Features

• Nylon insert locking style resists loosening from vibration without secondary locking hardware
• M16x2 metric thread with right-hand direction per DIN 985 standard
• Class 8 steel construction for reliable mechanical strength
• Zinc finish provides corrosion protection for general-use environments
• 24.00 mm width across flats for standard metric wrench fitment
• Conforms to DIN 985 fastener standard

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 985 metric hex lock nut compatible with M16x2 threaded fasteners and mating hardware in general industrial and mechanical assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand-threading onto the mating bolt or stud before tightening with an appropriate metric wrench sized for a 24.00 mm across-flats dimension. Nylon insert lock nuts are intended for single-use applications and should not be reused after removal, as the nylon locking element loses effectiveness once displaced. Ensure mating fastener threads are clean and free of damage before installation to achieve proper seating of the nylon insert.
