Product Description

Thread Lock Nylon Balls are a simple, effective way to keep your machine hardware from backing out during a session. These small nylon balls sit inside your binding post or contact screw assembly, creating just enough friction to lock everything in place without damaging threads.

Unlike liquid threadlock (like Loctite), which cures and can gum things up, nylon works through mechanical resistance—it compresses slightly and holds tension against the screw. That means you get a secure hold that’s reusable, adjustable, and clean. Perfect for fine-tuning contact screws without the risk of stripping or over-locking your setup.

• Precision 1/8", plus or minus .001"
• Used to help lock the contact screw with the thumbscrew
• Available in 5 or 100 pieces
