For Nylon Insert Hex Lock Nut (Type 2) — GB/T 6182 / ISO 10513 (Series 051) in Grade 12.9 Steel, the controlling decisions are corrosion, strength and service temperature. This guide summarizes those three for Grade 12.9 Steel Nylon Insert Hex Lock Nut (Type 2) — GB/T 6182 / ISO 10513 (Series 051) and lists every size we supply.
Why Choose Grade 12.9 Steel for Nylon Insert Hex Lock Nut (Type 2) — GB/T 6182 / ISO 10513 (Series 051)
The highest common strength class, for high-load machine assembly. For nylon insert hex lock nut (type 2) — gb/t 6182 / iso 10513 (series 051), this matters when requires plating or black-oxide protection is the primary requirement.
Mechanical & Physical Properties
| Grade designation | class 12.9 |
|---|---|
| Magnetic response | Magnetic |
| Service temperature | up to approx. +300 °C |
| Corrosion characteristic | Requires plating or black-oxide protection |
Galvanic & Galling Considerations
For nylon insert hex lock nut (type 2) — gb/t 6182 / iso 10513 (series 051) in steel, the dominant compatibility issue is hydrogen embrittlement at high property classes (10.9 and above) when electroplated. Plating must be followed by an appropriate baking treatment, or a non-electroplated finish (mechanical zinc, zinc flake) should be substituted.
Comparable Grades
For Nylon Insert Hex Lock Nut (Type 2) — GB/T 6182 / ISO 10513 (Series 051), class 8.8 is the comparable strength step. Move up when the joint preload approaches the proof load of the current class; move down when the joint is over-specified. For corrosion-critical service, switch to stainless A2 or A4.
