Lock nuts are specialized fasteners designed to prevent loosening due to vibration or torque. They are typically made from materials such as steel, stainless steel, or nylon, and feature a design that enhances their grip on the bolt or screw they are paired with. This added security makes them ideal for applications where reliability is crucial, such as in machinery and automotive assemblies.
