Nut 1370/0403Z JCB, aftermarket

For the JCB machines: nut 1370/0403Z, an aftermarket part. According to the product card, this part is a nut.

A nut is a threaded part that works with a bolt or stud and clamps the joint. The strength of the joint depends on the tension created in the bolt as the nut is tightened. The nut's strength grade must match the bolt, as a weaker nut may strip its thread under load. To stop nuts working loose under vibration, machines use lock nuts, self-locking nuts (with a nylon ring or deformed thread) and locking washers. Where possible, the nut and bolt are taken from the same strength grade and standard.
