GB6172.1 is a Chinese national standard for thin hexagonal nuts, which is characterized by its relatively DIN936 small thickness and is suitable for occasions where space is limited or the overall weight needs to be reduced. They are widely used in a variety of fields, including machinery, electronic equipment, furniture manufacturing and so on.

Material: including carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel (such as 304, 316, 316L, etc.) and other materials, the specific selection depends on the working environment and application requirements.

Grade: The product grade is different mechanical properties grade (such as 4.8 grade, 8.8 grade, 10.9 grade,A2-70, etc.), these grades reflect the tensile strength, yield strength and other mechanical properties of the bolt. Different grades are suitable for different load bearing requirements and working environments.

Advantage:

Space saving: Thin nuts can be used in space-constrained environments due to their low height. Reduced weight: In applications where weight reduction is required, such as in aerospace, thin nuts can reduce the use of materials. Ease of Installation: Thin hexagonal nuts can be installed and removed with a standard wrench for ease of handling. Variety of materials: Thin hexagonal nuts can be made of different materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, etc. to suit different applications.

Scope of Application

Electronic and electrical equipment: Due to their thin design, hexagonal thin nuts are commonly used in the assembly of electronic and electrical equipment. Precision Machinery: Thin nuts provide the fastener connection needed in precision machinery where an exact fit is required. Automotive: Thin nuts may be required in certain parts of automobiles to fit into compact spaces.

Main Features: Easy to install, integrity, no gasket, easy to remove, reusable, medium carbon steel can be made with 8.8, Class 10.9 and other high strength bolts are used in connection with the United States military - MIL-STD 1312 Vibration Test. 

Applications: Automotive industry -- cars, trucks, buses, compressors, construction machinery, wind power equipment, fasteners, agricultural machinery, casting industry, drilling equipment, shipbuilding industry, military, mining equipment, oil drilling RIGS (onshore or offshore), public rail transit, transmission systems, metallurgical equipment.
