    Spring-Stop Locknuts

    These locknuts withstand heavy vibration similar to distorted-thread nuts, and you can use them over and over. The prongs at the top bend when tightened to create tension for a secure hold. As you remove the locknut, the prongs spring back to their original shape, so you can install the nut again without losing holding power. Also known as Fuji locknuts.
    Low-Strength Steel

    Rated Grade 2, Class 6, or lower, these locknuts are about half as strong as medium-strength steel nuts. Use them with screws that have a similar strength rating to avoid stripping threads during installation.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—A step up from plain steel, the zinc plating withstands occasional exposure to moisture.

    Nylon-Insert Cap Nuts

    Get the protection of a cap nut with the vibration resistance of a locknut. These nuts not only conceal protruding screw threads, they also have a nylon insert that grips the screw to prevent loosening from moderate vibration. However, the insert may become brittle if exposed to high temperatures. Nuts are reusable a handful of times, but their holding power decreases with each use.
