Galvanized Hexagon Flange Nut is a hexagonal nut with a zinc-plated finish, featuring a flange on one end face of the nut. This flange face serves as a built-in washer to help distribute pressure during tightening and reduce damage to the connecting parts. The galvanized finish provides additional corrosion protection for the nut, making it suitable for use outdoors or in wet environments.
Carbon Steel: Typically used for general applications.
Stainless Steel: For environments where corrosion resistance is required.
Alloy Steels: Used in applications requiring high strength or high temperature resistance.
Advantage:
Corrosion resistance: The zinc coating provides excellent corrosion resistance and extends the life of the nut. Increased contact area: The flange design increases the surface area of the nut in contact with the workpiece, providing greater strength and tension. Anti-slip teeth: The inside of the flange has anti-slip dimples called "teeth" that provide an additional anti-slip stop. Anti-Loosening: Due to their design, hex flange nuts are effective in preventing the nut from loosening during vibration.
Scope of Application
Machinery and equipment assembly: Used in the assembly and repair of machinery and equipment to provide stable fastening. Building Structures: Used in building and structural projects to ensure structural stability and safety. Pipe Connections: Often used for pipe and flange connections, especially in applications where extra tightening and prevention of loosening is required.
