Stainless steel & special-alloy grade enquiries
State the exact material grade in your RFQ. The following are enquiry options, not a stock list or certification claim. Suitability, manufacturing route and availability require confirmation for this nut design.
| Material requested | Technical information to confirm |
|---|---|
| SS 304 / 304L | Exact material specification; stainless nut grade and strength class where applicable. |
| SS 316 / 316L | Corrosion environment, specified material and required mechanical properties. |
| SS 310 / 310S | Exact grade, service temperature and mechanical requirements; no automatic high-temperature approval. |
| SS 904L | Stainless steel grade request; corrosion environment and applicable product/test specification. |
| HASTELLOY family | Exact alloy designation, material specification and certificate requirements. |
| Alloy 20 | Exact specification, service environment and product-form requirements. |
| MONEL family | Exact alloy designation and required mechanical/product specification. |
| INCONEL family | Exact alloy designation, service temperature and product/test specification. |
ISO 3506-2 stainless nut designations and property classes are separate from commercial SS grade names. Do not infer nut proof load from “SS 304” or “SS 316”, or copy bolt classes such as 8.8/10.9 onto a nut specification. Carbon/alloy steel requests need their own specified nut grade and mechanical requirements. The nylon insert has separate temperature and chemical limits.

Technical Selection & Standard Reference
DIN 985 is a commonly requested legacy commercial reference. ISO 10511 covers thin prevailing-torque hexagon nuts with a non-metallic insert. Specify the actual height, standard edition and torque requirements.
Check before ordering: Insert material, temperature/chemical exposure, prevailing torque, reuse policy and mating thread.
References describe the product family, not certification of a supplied item. Specify the current or contractually required edition; confirm any legacy DIN reference against the actual drawing.
Application Areas
Machinery, vibration-prone equipment and assemblies within the verified insert operating limits.
For oil & gas, pharma, dairy or construction projects, state the actual load, corrosion, hygiene, temperature and approval requirements. Sector names alone do not establish suitability.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can an SS 310 Nylock nut be assumed suitable for high temperature?
No. The insert, not just the metal grade, limits temperature and chemical suitability. Confirm the insert specification and operating limits before selection.
How do I request a quotation for nylon insert lock nut (nylock nut)?
Send the nut type, thread diameter and pitch, quantity, material grade, strength or test requirements, standard edition or drawing, finish, application and delivery location. Technical suitability and availability are confirmed with the quotation.
