Greer
Locknuts offer quality and reliability for common applications
in the transportation, communications, electronics, defense
and other industries. The Greer Locknut product portfolio
consists of nylon insert hex, clinch and spline nuts. These
U.S.-made locknuts meet MS, MIL, AN and NAS specifications,
and are available in a variety of finishes, platings and materials.
Recognizable
by its trademark green color, the Greer nylon insert locking
element provides consistent, toleranced interference with
the bolt thread. The bolt threads compress the nylon, forming
a tight grip and preventing the nut from rotating free, even
under severe shock and vibration. In fact, with Greer Locknuts,
locking occurs along the entire length of the threads thanks
to the downward pressure forces created by the insert's design.
The
nylon insert material resists most organic acids, oils, greases
and common solvents and mineral acids. Due to its toughness
and resiliency, it also resists the highly abrasive action
caused by nicked threads in mating fasteners; increasing reliability
and reducing downtime from failed installations.
A wide selection of Greer All Metal Nuts as well as
product specials are also available. Call SPS Technologies
