Socket Head Nylon Patch

Description

HBS Fasteners offers specialized Socket Head Screws with a permanent Nylon Patch (Nylock Patch) applied to the threads. The patch creates a prevailing torque that resists vibration-induced loosening while maintaining the structural integrity of the joint. This “self-locking” feature makes it an essential component for critical assemblies where safety and long-term stability are required.

Technical Specifications

• Self-Locking Feature: High-quality Nylon Patch applied to specific thread zones to ensure a secure lock.

• Drive Type: Hex Socket (Allen) drive for high-torque application in restricted spaces.

• Head Style: Standard cylindrical Socket Head for a high-strength and professional finish.

• Size Range: Available in standard metric sizes from M3 to M12.

• Threading: Precision-rolled metric threads with controlled patch thickness for smooth installation.

Material & Quality Excellence

• Stainless Steel: Available in high-tensile Austenitic (A2, A4) and specialized grades.

• Other Materials: Produced in Alloy Steel and Mild Steel for heavy-duty industrial use.

• Manufacturing Control: Using raw materials from our in-house wire drawing facility ensures that the base bolt meets extreme strength standards before the patch application.

• Surface Finishing: Options include Zinc Plating, Black Oxide, and Passivation.

Key Application Areas

• Automotive: Critical for engine mounts, transmissions, and suspension systems subject to constant vibration.

• Electronics & IT: Used in high-end servers and sensitive electronic enclosures to prevent hardware failure.

• Industrial Machinery: Ideal for moving parts, automated assembly lines, and vibrating equipment.

• Aerospace & Defense: High-reliability fastening for precision instruments and structural components.
