What can I use instead of metal hex nuts?
PEEK nuts are often used as an alternative to metal hex nuts. They withstand temperatures up to 550° F and resist acids, bases, and salt solutions. Glass-filled nylon nuts are stronger than nylon 6/6 nuts. They resist oil, grease, and solvents (except mineral acids). For use in wet environments, acetal nuts resist alcohol, gasoline, and solvents.

Which is stronger, a hex nut or a thread?
These nuts are about 25% stronger than medium-strength steel thin hex nuts. Available in inch thread sizes. Made from Grade 2 steel, these nuts should be used for light duty fastening applications, such as securing access panels. These nuts tighten when turned to the left; once fastened, they resist loosening from counterclockwise motion.
