Why choose waxed stainless lock nuts?
Waxed locking nuts help reduce galling and facilitate smoother installation, while the 18/8 stainless construction delivers long-lasting corrosion resistance. The hex-top design makes it easy to tighten with common tools, and the locking feature helps prevent loosening under vibration and thermal cycling.
Usage tips
- Pair with corresponding bolts or studs of the same 1/2-20 UNC size.
- Tighten to the manufacturer's torque specification to avoid over- or under-tightening.
- Store in a dry environment to preserve the wax coating and extend service life.
