Machine Screw Hex Nut Zinc

Overview

• BoltCraft’s Machine Screw Hex Nuts adhere to the ANSI/ASME B18.6.3 standard, offering a reliable solution for fastening in tight spaces. Their smaller width across flats and corners distinguishes them from standard hex nuts, making them particularly suitable for use with machine screws.

Applications & Advantages

• Optimized for use in areas where space is constrained, allowing for secure fastening where larger nuts cannot be accommodated.
• Ideal for assemblies that require a neat and precise fastening solution, ensuring stability and reliability even in compact designs.
• The zinc plating provides a layer of corrosion resistance, making them suitable for various environments, including those prone to moisture.

Material & Specifications

• Crafted from low carbon steel, these nuts offer a balance between ductility and strength, ensuring dependable performance.
• The 18-8 stainless steel variant is available for applications requiring additional resistance to corrosion, particularly in corrosive conditions.
• The zinc plating on steel nuts not only enhances corrosion resistance but also improves the overall durability of the nut.

Hardness & Durability

• The material selection and design of these machine screw hex nuts ensure a high level of hardness and durability, suitable for demanding applications.
• The compact design does not compromise on strength, providing a secure fastening solution that withstands the test of time.

Proof Load & Finish

• These nuts are engineered to meet specific proof load requirements, ensuring they can handle the intended loads without failure.
• The zinc finish not only adds to the aesthetic appeal of the nuts but also serves as an additional protective barrier against environmental factors, further extending their service life.
