Hex Lock Nut: Distorted Thread, 1-1/4-7, Grade L9 Steel, Uncoated with Wax MPN:36571

Distorting thread locks hex lock nuts made from grade L9 steel, a premium steel alloy that demonstrates excellent tensile strength and fatigue resistance in demanding environments like aerospace, military, and construction sectors where high stress concentrations arise through vibrational loads or repetitive torquing. These uncoated wax-dipped nuts prevent loosening of screws through thread stripping without grip tape's messiness or galvanizing's corrosion concerns while maintaining hexagon alignment when under immense pressure to endure rough handling. Ideal for professionals looking to safeguard critical fastening tasks on aircrafts, equipment or machinery where performance is vital or even life-threatening.
