What Are Step Welding Nuts?

Step welding nut is a kind of fastener, some people may not know much about it. As a professional fastener manufacturer, Xinchi Fastener Company is pleased to introduce what welding nuts are and the difference between them and hexagon nuts.

What are step welding nuts?

A step welding nut is a step nut suitable for welding outside the nut. It is generally made of weldable material and thicker, suitable for welding. Welding is equivalent to turning two separate parts into a whole, melting metals at high temperatures, mixing them together, and then cooling them, with alloys added in between. The interior of the weld is the action of molecular forces, generally stronger than the maternal strength.

Welding strength is relatively large, and welding is used in a wide range. No matter whether thin material or thick material can be used for welding. But the high temperature will cause deformation of connected parts, and can not be removed. And some active metals cannot be welded in the usual way. The experiment of welding parameters should be based on the fusion size of the weld, and the welding parameters should be adjusted according to the fusion size until the defects are eliminated. Of course, the quality of welding is related to pre-welding treatment, such as cleaning ash, oil stains, and so on.

What is the difference between step welding nuts and hexagon nuts?

Hexagon nuts are used with bolts and screws to connect and tighten the parts. Hexagon nuts are widely used and can be used for machines, equipment, or structures with rough surfaces and low precision requirements. And customized hexagon-thick nuts can be used for relatively smooth surfaces, and high precision requirements on the machine, equipment, or structure. Hexagon-thick nuts are thicker and are often used for installation and disassembly. Hexagonal thin nuts are thin and used for the occasion when the surface space of the connected parts is limited. Nuts are mechanical parts that have internal threads and are used in conjunction with bolts to transmit motion or power.
