If you are using the type with the nylon insert, that part goes out. You should be able to put the nut on by hand until you reach that part. Some nuts lock on with depressions on the sides of the nut. These type it doesn't matter which side you start with.

Where on aircraft locking wire is used?

All over the place! Seriously locking wire is used for so many applications. Especially larger aircraft.Every piece of hardware (nuts and bolts) on aircraft has to have 2 locking 'mediums'the first kind is torque up the nut and bolt, or whatever it is.usually, the second kind of locking medium (called nylocks) is nylon in the nut, which grips the bolt, to a minimum of approximately 20 inch pound of force required to remove it.there is also 'metal lock' nuts, that work in the exact same way, by using deformed metal to hold the nut in place.lockwire is used when it is not possible to use either of the above methods.so lockwire is used on bolts that may go into engine blocks, filter bowls, and places around extreme heat, like engine bays.

How do nylon lock nuts work?

Nylon locking nuts, also known as ny-locks, have a small ring of nylon one one end that forms slightly smaller hole than the threaded hole going through the nut. When the nut is screwed onto a bolt, the bolt has to force its way through the smaller opening, causing the nylon to stretch. This stretching creates a huge amount of friction between the nut and the bolt, allowing the nut to stay tight for long periods of time without coming loose. Nylon lock nuts are especially useful for applications that involve a lot of vibration that would cause regular nuts to come loose.
