Definition and characteristics of slotted nuts：

Locknuts for use with Cotter Pins: These Grade 5 or Class 8 nuts are your go-to for fastening most machinery and equipment. To avoid stripped threads during installation, make sure your screw has a comparable strength rating. Metric Slotted Hexagon and Castellated Hexagon Nuts are six-sided internally threaded fasteners with slots on top. The slots are used to lock the nut in place on an externally threaded fastener with a hole drilled through the diameter of the threads. When the slots of the nut are aligned with the hole in the bolt, a separate fastener is inserted through the slots, and the hole that keeps the nut locked is in place. The separate fastener usually is a cotter pin, but spring tension pins or a threaded screw with a nylon insert locknut can also be used.

Metric Slotted Hexagon Nuts are hexagon-shaped along the entire nut length, with slots cut in the top. Nominal sizes M10 and below are available in Slotted Hexagon Nuts.

Metric Castellated Hexagon Nuts are hexagon-shaped on the bottom and round on the top where the slots are located. Nominal sizes M12 and above are available in Castellated Hexagon Nuts.

Juxin Fasteners supplies DIN 935 Metric Slotted and Castellated Hexagon Nuts and DIN 937 Low Metric Slotted and Castellated Hexagon Nuts in Steel, Stainless Steel, and Brass.

Zinc-Plated Steel—A step up from plain steel, the zinc plating withstands occasional exposure to moisture.

Steel—These locknuts are best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust.

The purpose of Hex Slotted Nuts is to secure the vehicle's front and rear axles by fastening through the front and rear axle screws to hold the frame and tires together.

Hex Slotted Nuts are nuts with open slots, usually used for connecting bolts and other parts. Hex Slotted Nuts have the following characteristics:

1. Easy to disassemble. Compared to other fasteners, Hex Slotted Nuts have the advantage of easy disassembly and can be reused.

2. Quick installation. The structure of Hex Slotted Nuts makes installation faster, which can improve work efficiency.

3. Reduced loosening. The structure of Hex Slotted Nuts allows them to hold parts more securely, reducing the risk of loosening.

ASME/ANSI B 18.2.2 Hex Slotted Nuts Application Industry Solutions：

Hex Slotted Nuts are commonly used mechanical parts primarily used to secure two or more components in a machine or equipment. They aim to realize reliable fixing by cooperating with bolts to connect several parts closely.

The advantage of Hex Slotted Nuts is that they have a large contact surface and high load-carrying capacity to withstand enormous pressure and shear forces. At the same time, they can effectively transfer and disperse the force through cooperation with the bolt, making the connection more stable and reliable.

In practical applications, Hexagon-Slotted Nuts are usually used to fix various equipment and structures, such as bridges, buildings, vehicles, ships, aircraft, etc. For example, hexagon-slotted nuts can be used in construction to fix steel beams, columns, wall panels, etc. Vehicles and ships can be used to repair frames, chassis, hulls, etc.

1. Machinery Manufacturing. Hex-slotted nuts are widely used in machinery manufacturing to connect tools, transmissions, bearings, and other components. Because they are easy to disassemble, they make removing and replacing parts during maintenance easier.

2. Construction. In construction, hex-slotted nuts are usually used to connect various structural parts, such as roof beams and columns, steel plates, and steel pipes.

3. Automotive. In automobile manufacturing, ASME/ANSI B 18.2.2 is widely used in the engine, frame, transmission, and other car parts, with easy-to-assemble and fast installation characteristics.

4. Furniture. In furniture manufacturing, ASME/ANSI B 18.2.2 can connect parts made of wood, metal, plastic, and other materials, significantly reducing manufacturing costs.

How to Choose Hex-Slotted Nuts：

A Slotted Nut has slots cut into one end of the nut. When used in an application, a bolt or threaded bar generally has a pre-drilled hole so that when the slotted nut is threaded on and torqued to the required position, it can be secured using a cotter pin or write to prevent rotation.

Slotted Nuts are used in applications where vibration or motion might undo the locknut.

Both a Castle Nut and a Slotted Nut look similar and can often be used interchangeably because they have almost identical dimensions. However, they are different in that the protrusions on a Slotted Nut are from the base of the nut and include the corners, whereas a Castle Nut looks like a standard nut with triangular portions protruding but not including the corners of the hex.

Slotted nuts are manufactured as standard from Steel Grades 4, 8, and 10 and A2 and A4 Stainless Steel. Different sizes, thread styles, and materials are now available from Juxin Fasteners. Email:adelajonly@gmail.com,www.juxinfasteners.com, with specials available to order.

Non-standard sizes, materials, and finishes are available to order as specials, including small-volume manufacture, modifications, and custom parts made to drawings. Minimum order quantities may apply.

When choosing Hex Slotted Nuts, you need to select according to the specific use scenario and should generally consider the following aspects:

1. Material of Hex Slotted Nuts. Depending on the environment in which they are used, choosing Hex Slotted Nuts with different materials can make them more adaptable to the environment and improve their service life.

2. The specification of Hex Slotted Nuts. The specifications of hex-slotted nuts need to be selected according to the connected parts to ensure the safety and reliability of the connection.

3. Quality of Hex Slotted Nuts. When choosing Hex Slotted Nuts, you need to pay attention to their quality and choose reliable brands and suppliers not to affect the connection's effect.

Hex Slotted Nuts have the advantages of easy disassembly, fast installation, reduced loosening, etc., and are widely used in machinery manufacturing, construction, automobiles, furniture, and other fields. When purchasing Hex Slotted Nuts, you must choose the material, specification, and quality according to the specific use scenario to ensure a reliable and safe connection effect.
