What Is Stainless Steel Hex Nut?
Stainless steel hex nut is a common fastener, maybe someone would like to know some knowledge about stainless steel hex nut. For example, how widely is it used? What sizes do they come in? What is the difference between stainless steel hex nut and other nut? In view of these problems, as a professional fastener manufacturer, Xinchi Fastener Company is happy to take you to understand.
What is stainless steel hexagonal nut?
Stainless steel hex nut is a necessary component for manufacturing machinery. There are many kinds of nuts, including hex nuts, round nuts, square nuts and so on. According to the different material, it can be divided into carbon steel nut, stainless steel nut and so on. Cooperating stainless steel hex nut with screws or bolts can play the role of connecting fastening parts.
The classification of stainless steel hexagon nuts
Stainless steel hexagonal nuts are divided into three types according to the nominal thickness: type I, type II and thin type. There are two types of nuts above grade 8: Type I and type II. Type I stainless steel hexagonal nuts are the most widely used, and type I caps are divided into A, B, C three grades. Type II stainless steel hexagonal nut thickness is relatively thick, often used in the need of installation and disassembly.
Why are hexagonal stainless steel nuts made into hexagonal shapes?
Is stainless steel hex nut made into a hex reasonable? Stainless steel hexagonal nuts are designed using mechanics and engineering. The main consideration of making the nut hexagonal is its application in real life and its parallelism to the opposite side. The number of edges on the nut head determines the Angle of rotation. The six side is a 60-degree twist, and the four side is a 90-degree twist. Moreover, in the actual production process, the process of 6-sided nut is also relatively simple, and compared with other shapes, it can save materials and ensure its performance, so most nuts are 6-sided. So most nuts are 6-sided. The 6-sided shape also has the best stability in the process of force application, and has small requirements for operable space. It is easy to twist when working in a narrow space.
The specification standard for stainless steel hexagon nuts
Different kinds of nuts have different standards. For stainless steel hex nut, the commonly used standards are GB52, GB6170, GB6172 and DIN934.
