NYLOK®

Self-Locking Fasteners

NYLOK

Newport News Industrial (NNI) is a qualified supplier of Nylok® self-locking fasteners.  The self-locking feature is created by permanently embedding Nylok® blue nylon pellets in the threads of a fastener.  When mating threads are engaged, the tough self-locking element is compressed and a counterforce is created to establish a much stronger contact and positive resistance to vibration and loosening.

Nylok® self-locking elements can be installed by NNI in Type "N" male fasteners in accordance with MIL-DTL-1824-F(1) from as small as #4 up to and including 1" in diameter.  A Nylok® self-locking element can be applied to your fastener, or ready-to-install self-locking fastener can be supplied to your specification.  NNI also has the ability to re-pelletize fasteners in order to renew the self-locking feature.
