For the cost of replacing, use once.

RE: Nyloc nut re-use
Another discussion came up at the time---counterfit nyloc fasteners, indeed, counterfit 'grade 8' fasteners. I got a batch of 5/16th NF nuts that stripped when torqued to over 144 in/lbs. Torque for that application was supposed to be 300 in/lbs.
