Doesn't seem to be a great deal about nylon nuts on discussion forums.
Is the gist that they are better to use over normal nuts when you need to ensure the nut won't come loose over time?
I have a job at my house at the moment where some joists are being extended to sit on a new block wall and they are using bolts to connect the timber together.
Obviously over time these could in theory work loose throughvibration etc so I am thinking of adding a second nut on or I could use a nylon nut instead.
Also can they be used externally?
Thanks
