It is standard practice when you have a tight/rusty
screw but neither the tap nor the die for the thread
to drive a nut against the corrosion.

Stupid boy.


You can tighten slightly the nut on the screw then tap the around sides of
the nut freeing off the thread. next tighten down again and repeat until
sufficiant thread is compatible with the nut.

BTW... don't change the nut for another.
