Overview
- Designed for strength and reliability, BoltCraft’s Heavy Hex Nuts are manufactured to meet A563 Grade A specifications, ensuring compatibility with low-carbon heavy hex bolts. The zinc coating enhances corrosion resistance, making these nuts ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Applications & Advantages
- Ideal for structural, mechanical, and construction applications where a robust nut is required to ensure joint integrity.
- The zinc plating provides an additional layer of corrosion resistance, making it suitable for use in a variety of environments.
Material & Specifications
- These nuts are made from steel conforming to specific chemical composition requirements, with a maximum carbon content of 0.55% and controlled levels of phosphorus and sulfur to ensure strength and ductility.
- The A563 Grade A specification denotes suitability for use with low-carbon heavy hex bolts, ensuring a reliable and secure fastening solution.
Hardness & Durability
- The nuts are designed to achieve a hardness level within the Rockwell B68 – C32 range, offering a balance between strength and ductility for versatile applications.
- The thicker and wider design compared to standard hex nuts provides a greater length of thread engagement and resistance to dilation, enhancing the overall durability of the assembly.
Proof Load & Finish
- With a proof load suitable for low-carbon heavy hex bolt applications, these nuts ensure a secure fastening solution capable of withstanding significant stress and load.
- The zinc coating not only provides an added layer of protection against corrosion but also ensures longevity and reliability in a wide range of environmental conditions.
