Paulin Keps Nuts 18-8 Stainless Steel

A Keps nut, also referred to as a k-lock nut or washer nut, features a built-in, freely rotating external tooth lock washer. This configuration is designed to simplify the assembly process and enhance resistance to vibrations and loosening. When the nut is tightened, the teeth of the lock washer penetrate the bearing surface, securing the nut in place. Typically, the lock washer is a star-shaped ring with teeth that face outward, gripping the mating surface to prevent the nut from turning. 18.8 stainless steel fasteners have good outdoor and chemical resistance and may be mildly magnetic.

• Corrosion Resistance: One of the primary benefits of 18.8 stainless steel is its excellent resistance to corrosion. applications where exposure to moisture and salt is common.
• Speeds up the assembly process by eliminating the need to handle separate washers.
• Ensures a more secure and vibration-resistant joint.
• Ideal for use in harsh environments, including outdoor, marine, and coastal.
