Value Collection NL5XX02400 M24x3 Hex Lock Nut 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION NL5XX02400 is a metric hex lock nut with a nylon insert locking mechanism, manufactured from Grade 316 A4 stainless steel with a bright uncoated finish. Sized at M24x3 with a right-hand thread direction, this nut meets DIN 985 standards and is suited for applications requiring corrosion resistance and vibration-resistant fastening. The nylon insert collar deforms around the mating thread to resist loosening without damaging thread surfaces. Licensed trades and maintenance professionals rely on this nut in marine, chemical, and outdoor environments where standard carbon steel hardware would be inadequate.

This hex lock nut is appropriate for use in marine hardware assemblies, process piping structural connections, pool and water treatment equipment mounting, and any application where exposure to moisture, salt, or chemicals demands a corrosion-resistant fastener. Its DIN 985 conformance makes it a direct fit in metric fastener systems across residential and commercial installations. The 36.00 mm width across flats accepts standard metric wrenching tools, and the 24.00 mm height provides adequate thread engagement for high-load applications.

Key Features

• Grade 316 A4 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments
• Nylon insert locking style resists loosening from vibration and dynamic loads without thread damage
• M24x3 right-hand thread with 36.00 mm width across flats for standard metric tooling
• Meets DIN 985 fastener standard for dimensional and performance conformance
• Bright uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and avoids coating incompatibility issues

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 985-compliant replacement or service nut for M24x3 metric thread applications in marine, industrial, and outdoor installations requiring Grade 316 stainless steel hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, pipefitters, or structural trades using standard metric wrenches or sockets sized for a 36.00 mm across-flats dimension. Ensure mating bolt threads are clean and free of debris before seating the nut to avoid damaging the nylon insert. The nylon insert is a single-use locking element and should not be reused once fully torqued and removed. Follow applicable structural or mechanical codes for torque requirements based on the assembly application.
