As the screw threads on it cuts into that nylon, and the friction created is what stops the nut backing off under vibration. M4 nuts appear where loads are high, which on most cars means wheel nuts, engine mounts and main chassis fixings, and those are exactly the positions where a fastener working loose has serious consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey are consumable by design. Every removal and refit cuts the nylon further, and after a few cycles a nut that spins on by hand has stopped doing its job. Reusing tired lock nuts is how a wheel comes off mid-run, which is the one failure that ends a race and often the car with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 5.5mm height includes the nylon collar, so check clearance where space is tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive are supplied. Given how cheap they are relative to what they hold on, replacing rather than reusing is the sensible policy. This supersedes the older Kyosho number 1179.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PowerHobby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44532864090200,"sku":"KYO1-N4055N","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0567\/0554\/8376\/files\/1-n4055n_d83a68c0-ff5c-4819-a79e-18f8df8be7aa.jpg?v=1786243012","url":"https:\/\/beavertonmilestonehobby.com\/products\/kyosho-1-n4055n-m4x5-5mm-nylon-lock-nut-5pcs","provider":"Beaverton Milestone Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
