Spare part.nut with binder and clamp, self-locking M8. DIN985.(MU.ST.08.01.985.08)

A self-locking M8 DIN 985 nut is a hex nut with a built-in nylon insert that creates friction to prevent loosening due to vibration. The nut has an M8 (8mm) metric thread and a specific, low-profile shape conforming to the DIN 985 standard. The non-metallic locking component is made of a plastic, often polyamide or nylon, which is compressed onto the bolt's threads to secure the connection. 

Key features

• Self-locking mechanism: A non-metallic insert (binder) made of nylon or polyamide is part of the nut.
• Locking action: The insert deforms when the nut is screwed on, creating friction and locking the nut in place without the need for a separate locking washer.
• Vibration resistance: This design provides resistance against loosening from vibration and torque.
• Standard: It conforms to the DIN 985 standard, which is now largely superseded by ISO 10511.
• Thread: M8, meaning it has an M8 metric thread (8mm diameter).
• Profile: It is a "low-profile" or "thin" nut.
• Material and finish: Typically available in materials like steel (with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance) or stainless steel (A2 or A4 grade).
