Self-Locking Counter Nuts / PAL Nuts (DIN 7967)
DIN 7967 PAL nuts are thin all-metal self-locking counter nuts that use a radial-slot spring-action mechanism to grip bolt thread flanks and resist loosening under vibration and dynamic loads — without nylon inserts, adhesives, or deformed threads. FULLERKREG supplies DIN 7967 PAL nuts across all standard material grades and surface finishes, from economical zinc-plated spring steel to marine-grade A4 stainless steel, covering M4 through M52 in Series 1 (coarse thread) and Series 2/3 (fine pitch) configurations.

Standard Overview — DIN 7967
DIN 7967 defines self-locking counter nuts (PAL nuts), prevailing torque type, all-metal. The locking action is achieved by a radial slot through the nut body combined with a deliberate thread offset between the two halves, creating a spring-like clamping force on the bolt thread flanks. Three series are defined: Series 1 (metric coarse thread, 9 locking teeth), Series 2 and Series 3 (metric fine pitch). Unlike nylon insert nuts (DIN 985), DIN 7967 PAL nuts are fully metallic — no temperature or chemical limitations from non-metallic inserts. Size range: M4 – M52.
