    Thanks Bob, your videos are money. Just got a job at nut/bolt supplier. I am a novice with this stuff. you explain the distinctions really well

    For all my life I've never seen a jam nut used, unless of course they used a jam nut in place of the finish nut. Very nice presentation, will be watching more. Kids of today should get away from their games and facebook pages and learn to do something like how to put a nut and bolt together. I'd say being a tradesmen today will be excellent business as the last large generation of DIY'ers where born 60's, maybe some kids from 70's who worked with their Dad in the garage on their muscle of family car.

    Great video. One doubt, if I have a joint on 2 metal parts which are supposed to flex, but not loosen with repeated use, which nut should I use? Or should I just use a normal nut and weld it?

    Great vidio. In all my years never heard of the last nut that you shown with the waxed threads. Looked like an ordinary Ny Lol nut. User them in Nam oh Hueys helichopters. They would only use them once brush throw away. Believe on the engine & transmission they used castle nuts with twisted safety wire.

    What are torque specs for Stover Lock Nut? It will be applied to attach Lower Ball Joint to the Control arm (originally on rivets, which are removed, so no TSs in the manual for the car!)

  • @GG-sp1cq
    @GG-sp1cq Před 5 lety +8

    This is good but would me more helpful if on some of them the use/purpose of each was elaborated on a little more.
    For example, The security nut explanation was helpful, some other things though i had to separately look up
    like left hand nut, to find out that its threaded the opposite way. I actually thought it was for left handed people at first or something.. then I was like no that can't be it, and had to look it up seperately
    and wing nut, "used for many different type of applications" isn't very helpful. I separately found out it's for things that need to tightened and loosened pretty often
    ....etc

    Galling seems to be VERY common with stainless steel Nylocks™ ( on stainless bolt ) any size ¼ inch ( M6 metric ) and bigger ... use dissimilar ( zinc plated / brass ? ) metal nuts or LOADS of antisieze compound ( you might not be able to get angle grinder in ! ) ...

    Hi, I don't even know if you will see this or be able to reply but I'm trying to change the brakes on my pushchair and it has what looks like carriage bolts but with a round kind of fastener the other side so I can't grip to unfasten it. I don't know how to unscrew it. Would be really grateful if you could point me in the right direction 🙏

    • @AlbanyCountyFasteners
      @AlbanyCountyFasteners  Před 5 lety

      We would need to know more about this pushchair and a more detailed description of the fasteners you're trying to remove to give you a better idea what to do. We recommend contacting our customer service with these details so we can try to help you better: www.albanycountyfasteners.com/contact-us.html

    If I had a 5/16-18Tpi stud , how would I know what size nut to use ?

    • @AlbanyCountyFasteners
      @AlbanyCountyFasteners  Před 4 lety

      It would be the sames size. So a 5/16-18 stud would be compatible with a 5/16-18 nut.

    • @tajaheedwards1516
      @tajaheedwards1516 Před 4 lety

      @@AlbanyCountyFasteners Thank you , Lets say i only have a nut how will i measure that nut to know what size and thread nut it is?

    • @AlbanyCountyFasteners
      @AlbanyCountyFasteners  Před 4 lety

      The easiest way is to use a thread gauge like the ones we have here: www.albanycountyfasteners.com/gauges-measuring-tools/acf_cat_gauges_and_measuring_tools.htm For nuts, we like to use the thread gauges on wires and try to fasten the nut to the various sizes available.

    Which can be used in vibration prone area

    • @AlbanyCountyFasteners
      @AlbanyCountyFasteners  Před 5 lety +2

      Any of the Lock Nuts. They are designed to resist vibration and accidental loosening. I've included time stamps for the Lock Nuts shown in the video:
      5:20 - Nylon Lock Nuts
      7:29 - Stover Lock Nuts
      7:56 - Two-Way Nuts
      8:46 - Serrated Flange Nuts
      9:29 - Keps K Lock Nuts
      There are other varieties of lock nuts, but these are some of the most common ones used to resist vibration.

  • @bramblebop1904
    @bramblebop1904 Před 3 lety

    So why do you need nylon locknuts if a regular nylon nut already has a locking effect due to its nylon insert?

    • @AlbanyCountyFasteners
      @AlbanyCountyFasteners  Před 3 lety

      I assume by "nylon nut" you're referring to a nut made entirely of nylon? The key difference between those nuts and the locknuts with the nylon insert is that the insert isn't threaded. The insert gets threaded as the screw is fastened through it. That's what creates the locking effect.

    • @bramblebop1904
      @bramblebop1904 Před 3 lety

      No. I mean the two kinds of nuts with a nylon insert. Regular nut w/ an insert and a locknut w/ an insert. Why is the latter needed?
