Bulk orders are packed in sturdy cartons, and we add simple cushioning inside to stop products from rubbing or getting crushed during transit. All packing keeps items dry and dust-free, suitable for regular sea or land shipping.
| Comparison Item | Prevailing Torque Type Hexagon Nuts with Flange Lock Nut | Nylon Lock Nut |
| Locking Principle | Locks through internal thread structure deformation, no extra parts needed, relies on metal friction to stay tight. | Uses built-in nylon ring to hold the bolt, locks via nylon elasticity, easy to install but relies on plastic part. |
| Structure & Extra Parts | Has integrated flange, no need for extra washers, saves installation steps. | No built-in flange, usually needs extra washers for use, more parts to prepare. |
| Application Limits | Works for high-temperature and heavy-load scenes, not easy to age, suitable for long-term mechanical use. | Nylon part ages easily in high temperature, not fit for long-term high-heat equipment, only for normal temperature. |
| Service Life | Metal structure, wear-resistant, longer service life for repeated disassembly. | Nylon wears out faster after repeated use, locking effect drops gradually over time. |

What are the key differences from Prevailing Torque Type Hexagon Nuts with Flange Lock Nut?
Unlike nylon nuts, this nut uses metal thread deformation to lock. It has no plastic parts, so it performs better in high-temperature environments.It comes with an integrated flange that distributes pressure evenly, so you don’t need extra washers.The metal structure is more durable and suitable for long-term heavy-duty use in mechanical assembly.
