Monel 400 Hexagon Vespel Insert Lock Nut for Higher Temperature or Corrosive Applications
Built for the hardest environments, this Monel 400 hexagon lock nut combines a corrosion-resistant Monel 400 (UNS N04400) nickel-copper alloy body with a Vespel polyimide insert. It is designed for higher temperature or corrosive applications where standard lock nuts quickly fail, holding locking torque in seawater, acids, alkali and elevated-temperature joints.
Key Selling Points
- Higher Temperature — Vespel insert holds locking torque up to 260°C continuous.
- Corrosive Applications — Monel 400 resists seawater, acids and alkali.
- Vespel Insert — non-metallic polyimide insert for reusable prevailing-torque locking.
- Vibration Resistant — keeps joints tight under vibration and thermal cycling.
- Non-Magnetic — suitable for instrumentation and sensitive assemblies.
