If I may jump in here.  Does a grade 2 lockwasher present less "lock"  than a 
grade 5, which presents less than a grade 8?  The answer seems  obvious, and 
I have been inclined to use grade 5 and 8 where I can.   Also, which is better 
to use in appropriate applications, a lockwasher or a  nyloc?  Is it wise to 
use a nyloc in place of a castellated nut with split  pin? The nylocs I have 
available are only grade 2, so that answer may be  obvious as well.
