What is Hex Flange Nuts?

Hexagonal Flange Nuts mainly consist of a nut body with a flange surface fixed at one end of the nut body and a cap fixed at the other. It has better sealing and corrosion resistance. Hexagonal Flange Nuts mainly include a nut body, a flange surface fixed at one end of the nut body, and a cap fixed at the other end of the nut body; due to the cap set on the nut body, it has a better sealing in the use of Hexagonal Flange Nuts, and it can effectively prevent the harmful substances such as rain, moisture and dust from being immersed in the nut body, preventing rust and corrosion from occurring, thus greatly extending the service life of the Hexagonal Flange Nuts. Extend the service life of hexagonal flange nuts.

Flange Nuts are anti-loosening fasteners with a wide flange at one end that acts as a one-piece washer. This flange distributes the pressure of the nut over the part being secured, thereby reducing the likelihood of damage to the part and making it less likely to loosen due to the uneven fastening surface. Most of these nuts are hexagonal and made of hardened steel, usually with a zinc-plated surface.

In many cases, the flange is fixed and rotates with the nut. The flange may be serrated to provide a locking action. The serrations are angled so that the nut will not rotate toward loosening the nut. Because of the serrations, they cannot be used with washers or on scratched surfaces. The serrations help prevent the vibration of the nut from moving the fastener, thus maintaining the holding power of the nut.

Flange Nuts sometimes feature a swivel flange, which helps to create a more stable structure without affecting the finished product as much as serrated flange nuts. Swivel flange nuts are primarily used to join wood and plastic. Sometimes, both sides of the nut are serrated, allowing either side to lock.

Self-aligning nuts have a convex spherical flange that fits into a concave dished washer to allow the nut to tighten on a surface that is not perpendicular to the nut.

Hexagonal Flange Nuts Specifications Material and Surface Treatment:

Flange Nuts are available in iron or stainless steel. But iron is more commonly used. It can also be plated according to the customer's desired color.

There is general plating treatment for environmental protection and non-environmental protection. Plating has environmental protection color zinc, environmental protection nickel, environmental protection blue zinc, environmental protection black zinc, natural color zinc-nickel alloy, black zinc-nickel alloy, and so on. There is also ordinary plating, white zinc, color zinc, black zinc, white nickel, etc.

In many cases, the flange is fixed and rotates with the nut. The flange may be serrated to provide a locking action. The serrations are at an angle so that the nut will not rotate in the direction of loosening the nut. Because of the serrations, they cannot be used with washers or on scratched surfaces. The serrations help prevent the vibration of the nut from moving the fastener, thus maintaining the holding power of the nut.

Metric High-Strength Steel Flange Nuts-Class 10 sometimes features a swivel flange, which helps create a more stable structure without compromising the finished product, like serrated flange nuts. Swivel flange nuts are primarily used to join wood and plastic. Sometimes, both sides of the nut are serrated, allowing either side to lock.

Self-aligning nuts have a convex spherical flange that fits into a concave dished washer, allowing the nut to tighten on a surface not perpendicular to the nut.

Also known as Medium-Strength Steel Flange Nuts, JIS Medium-Strength Steel Flange Nuts, Low-Strength Steel Flange Nuts, Medium-Strength Steel Serrated Flange Locknuts, Low-Strength Steel Serrated Flange Locknuts, etc., it is size specifications and hexagonal nuts are the same, except that its gasket and nut are one-piece. There is a non-slip tooth pattern underneath, which also increases the surface area contact between the nut and the workpiece, and compared with the combination of ordinary nuts and washers, the anti-loosening performance is more robust.

Flange nut material: A3 low carbon steel 35K high-speed steel wire 45 # steel 40CR 35Crmoa.

Hexagonal Flange Nuts hardness level: 4 level 5 level 6 level 8 level 10 level 12 level.

The surface treatment of Hexagonal Flange Nuts is generally divided into color zinc plating and white zinc plating, which are usually cold electro-galvanized.

Hexagonal Flange Nuts main specifications: M5 M6 M8 M10 M12 M16 M20 (M20 above specifications and M14 M18 flange nuts are not commonly used).

Hexagonal Flange Nuts role: Hexagonal Flange Nuts and general hexagonal nut size and thread specifications are the same, except that the hexagonal nut is a one-piece compared to the gasket and nut, and in the following non-slip teeth, which increases the surface area of the nut and the workpiece contact, compared to the ordinary nuts and washers of the combination of more Firm and greater tension.

Hexagonal Flange Nuts Applications:

 1. Automobile manufacturing: In automobile manufacturing, Hexagonal Flange Nuts are used as fasteners to connect the engine and chassis, wheels and suspension system, and other components.

2. Machinery Manufacturing: In machinery manufacturing, Hexagonal Flange Nuts are widely used to connect various metal components and parts of machines and equipment, such as connecting bearings, gears, drive shafts, and other parts.

3. Engineering construction: Hexagonal Flange Nuts also play an essential role. For example, in the distribution box, communication facilities, piping systems, and hexagonal flange face nut connection sealing performance can prevent leakage of electricity, water, gas, and so on.

The characteristics of Hexagonal Flange Nuts:

1. Strong sealing: Hexagonal Flange Nuts have good sealing performance, which can prevent the leakage of liquid, gas, and other substances.

2. Strong fastening force: As Hexagonal Flange Nuts have grooves on the outer side, it can improve the fixing force during the fastening process and make the connection more reliable.

3. Convenient installation: The six corners of Hexagonal Flange Nuts are designed to facilitate tightening and loosening operations with a wrench, making them easy-to-install and easy-to-maintain fasteners.

 Hexagonal Flange Nuts are widely used as fasteners in machinery manufacturing. It has the characteristics of solid sealing, fastening solid force, and easy installation, which can meet the fastening connection needs of various materials.
