Hex Nylock Nut M2x2.8 Steel DIN 985 — BOLTON SKU 57595.
About the Hex Nylock Nut M2x2.8 Steel DIN 985
The Hex Nylock Nut M2x2.8 Steel DIN follows the DIN 985 low-profile nylon-insert lock nut pattern in the miniature M2 thread size. A polyamide collar at the top of the nut deforms around the mating screw thread as the nut is run down, creating prevailing torque that resists loosening under vibration without needing adhesives or spring washers. The nut body is steel, and the ‘2.8’ in the designation is the second dimension stated by the supplier for this M2 variant. Because the locking element is polymer, service temperature is limited compared with all-metal lock nuts, and reuse is restricted — points worth confirming against your application when requesting a quotation, along with plating and property class. Counted small-pack supply suits the low per-assembly usage typical of this miniature size.

Typical applications
Miniature M2 nylock nuts secure small screws in vibration-prone assemblies — instrumentation, small actuators, UAV and model-scale airframes — where a spring washer will not fit and thread adhesive would complicate rework. They are normally fitted once and replaced after disassembly to preserve full locking performance.
