HEX NUTS

A hex nut is a common type of fastener with a six-sided (hexagonal) shape and internally threaded hole. It is designed to be used in conjunction with a bolt or threaded rod to secure two or more parts together. Hex nuts are available in various materials, such as steel, stainless steel, brass, and more, to suit different applications and environmental conditions. Key features of hex nuts include: Hexagonal Shape: The six flat sides (faces) of a hex nut provide a convenient gripping surface for tightening or loosening with a wrench or socket. Internal Threads: Hex nuts have threads on the inside that match the threads of a bolt or threaded rod, allowing them to be threaded onto the fastener. Size and Thread Pitch: Hex nuts come in a range of sizes and thread pitches to accommodate different bolt or screw sizes and types. Types: There are various types of hex nuts, including standard hex nuts, lock nuts (which resist loosening), and specialty nuts designed for specific applications. Hex nuts are widely used in construction, machinery, automotive, and countless other industries to secure components, fasten assemblies, and provide strong, reliable connections. Th
