8 FLIGHT 16 APRIL 1954 high limit, iOW llffll it fcW limit low limit. ... how long does this go on ? It went on for several weeks while we were putting the Nyloc through the Cold Flow test. We repeatedly transferred it from high limit to low limit bolts, testing the torque value all the time. The results showed the remarkable powers of recovery of the nylon insert, and how well it grips the thread of different bolts. The bolt makes its own way through the insert and the material moulds itself round the thread. There's no loosening effect from normal thread tolerances. In fact the only thing that moves a Nyloc is a spanner! We have decreased the overall height and weight of the Nyloc without affecting its thread length and screwing torque. The nut is easier to use in restricted spaces. The Nyloc Cap Nut has an insert and cap in one integral moulding. Used with a 'Dowty' Seal it gives a leak-proof seal suitable for use on pressurised cabins and fuel tanks.
