Aerospace MS & AN Lock Nuts

Mettec recommends aircraft quality lock nuts. The threads are high quality which provides for smooth torqueing action. On the AN 364/365 nylon insert nuts, nylon creates positive locking through multiple use. The MS 21042 steel flanged nuts have a higher heat resistance and strength rating. They have an ovalized top and are Moly coated to reduce friction on titanium bolts. Visually inspect the locking area for wear, and replace the nut when you feel the resistance starting to relax. For areas with repeated disassembly the AN 364/365 lock nuts are best. For maximum performance we suggest the MS 21042 lock nuts.
