Torque Nut
Torque Nut
Reliable Anti-Loosening with Prevailing Torque Nuts
Prevailing torque nuts are engineered with a built-in locking mechanism that resists loosening caused by vibration, shock, and dynamic loads. Also known as stiff nuts, stop nuts, or self-locking nuts, they maintain consistent friction on the threads without damaging the bolt, ensuring a secure and reusable connection. Designed to perform under demanding conditions—including high stress, extreme temperatures, and repeated load cycles—these nuts deliver dependable fastening across a wide range of applications. They are widely used in automotive, aerospace, construction, oil and gas, and even consumer products such as bicycles and furniture, where long-term reliability and safety are essential.
Features
These nuts are available in a range of surface finishes, including zinc plating, zinc flake coating, blackening, and hot-dip galvanisation, with options for customization based on specific environmental and performance requirements. They are typically produced in Class 6, Class 8, and Class 10 grades, ensuring reliable strength, durability, and consistent performance across demanding applications.
