The grade 8 steel wing nut has a self-locking nylon insert design and a zinc plating. The wing nut can be tightened and loosened by hand, without the use of tools. It has a self-locking nylon insert to help prevent loosening when the nut is threaded to another component. Grade 8 steel is stronger than grade 5 steel and is often used in applications where strength is the primary concern.
Nuts are internally threaded fasteners that are used with bolts and threaded rods and studs to connect components. Several different nut styles fit a variety of application and installation requirements. Some styles, such as hex nuts, acorn nuts, flange nuts, and coupling nuts, must be tightened with a tool. Others, such as eye nuts, thumb nuts, and wing nuts, can be tightened by hand. Some nuts have a self-locking mechanism, such as a nylon patch or distorted threads, that makes them suitable for applications with a high amount of vibration.
