What is a square nut?

Square nuts are square and have a threaded structure inside. They are suitable for some occasions that need to be used in a small space, such as electronic equipment, instrumentation, and so on. Due to their regular shape, square nuts are easy to install and not easy to loosen.

A square nut is a kind of fastener that can connect two or more parts tightly together. It has a square shape with four equal-length flat plates and a set of internal threads. According to its processing technology and material properties, square nuts are divided into two types: common square nuts and high-strength square nuts.

Common square nuts are made of many types of materials, such as general carbon steel, alloy steel, and so on. High-strength square nuts are generally made of alloy steel, and their strength has 5, 6, 8, 10, and 12 levels.

Because of its square shape, it is also known as a square nut. Square nuts are one kind of welded nuts, which involves melting some kind of metal at a high temperature and then welding it between two products to fasten them.

Analysis of the material and processing technology of square nuts:

The materials of ordinary square nuts are general carbon steel and alloy steel, while high-strength square nuts are made of alloy steel. The manufacturing process of square nuts mainly includes cutting, cold forming, hot forming, and other methods. Among them, the cutting method is suitable for manufacturing high-quality, small quantities of square nuts, while cold molding and hot forming are suitable for manufacturing large quantities of low-quality square nuts.

Precautions for the use of square nuts:

When using square nuts, the following points should be noted:

(1). The specifications of square nuts should be matched with the bolts;

(2). The square nut should be tightened according to the specified torque to avoid over-tightening or over-loosening;

(3). The square nut should not be reused and should be replaced with a new square nut after each disassembly.
