Hexagon Nylon Locking Nuts — DIN 985
FULLERKREG DIN 985 Hexagon Nylon Insert Lock Nuts (also known as Low-Type Nyloc Nuts or Thin Prevailing Torque Nuts) feature a compact low-profile hexagon body with an integrated polyamide insert that locks onto the bolt thread under compression, delivering reliable vibration resistance without adhesives or secondary locking devices. The reduced height profile makes DIN 985 the preferred choice where axial space is limited. Available in five material grades — from economical zinc-plated carbon steel to marine-grade stainless steel — covering thread sizes M4 through M24. All grades conform to DIN 985 / ISO 10511.

Standard Overview — DIN 985 / ISO 10511
DIN 985 specifies prevailing torque hexagon nuts with a non-metallic insert — low type. The standard covers metric thread sizes M4 through M24 across property classes 4, 6, 8, and 10. DIN 985 has been superseded by ISO 10511, but dimensions remain fully interchangeable. The low-type profile is approximately 20% shorter than the high-type DIN 982, making it ideal for space-constrained assemblies while still providing reliable nylon locking performance.
