Which item is described as providing enhanced thread grip?

• A. Self Locking
• B. Nuts
• C. Wing Nut
• D. Non Metallic

Answer: (A)

Enhanced thread grip comes from self-locking fasteners. They’re designed to resist loosening under vibration by increasing friction at the threads, typically with a nylon insert or a locking mechanism that grips the bolt more firmly as you tighten. This added grip is what keeps the connection from backing off. A regular nut doesn’t have that locking feature, a wing nut is meant for easy hand tightening rather than resisting vibration, and non-metallic refers to the material but doesn’t guarantee a locking action. So the item described is self-locking.
