Push Nuts
Our range of Nylon Push Nuts, also commonly known as Quick Nuts, provides a simple, lightweight and effective fastening solution for securing components onto threaded or unthreaded shafts, pins and studs. Manufactured from durable Nylon 66 (PA66), these push-on fasteners are designed for quick installation without the need for conventional threaded nuts or specialist tools.
What Are Nylon Push Nuts (Quick Nuts)?
Nylon Push Nuts are push-fit retaining fasteners designed to grip a compatible shaft, pin or stud when pressed into position. Their internal gripping features provide resistance to removal, helping to retain components without requiring a traditional screw thread or tightening operation.
These fasteners are particularly useful for rapid assembly processes where installation speed, low weight and ease of fitting are important. Unlike conventional hexagon nuts, nylon push nuts do not require rotational tightening, making them a practical choice for suitable non-load-bearing retaining applications.
Applications:
Nylon Push Nuts are commonly used across a range of industries and applications, including:
- Electrical and electronic equipment assemblies
- Automotive interior components and trim retention
- Domestic appliances and consumer products
- Lightweight panel and component retention
- Plastic and metal shaft assemblies
- General manufacturing and production line assembly
- Machinery covers and non-structural components
Benefits of Nylon Push Nuts
- Quick Installation: Push-on design reduces assembly time by eliminating conventional nut tightening.
- Lightweight Construction: Nylon 66 offers a low-weight alternative to metallic retaining fasteners.
- Corrosion Resistant: Non-metallic construction prevents rust formation, making them suitable for environments where corrosion is a concern.
- Electrical Insulation: Nylon 66 provides insulating properties for suitable electrical applications.
- Secure Retention: Internal gripping features help retain components on appropriately sized shafts and studs.
- Multiple Size Options: Available in a range of nominal sizes to suit different assembly requirements.
- Colour Options: Available in black and natural finishes to complement different applications.
