A Break Nut, also known as a break nut or safety break nut, is a fastener designed to break after a specific torque is exceeded. This type of nut is typically used for security and anti-theft purposes to ensure that equipment or structural components cannot be removed or loosened without authorization. When the Break Nut is tightened to a certain point using a standard wrench or socket, beyond its maximum torque limit, its hexagonal portion breaks off, leaving a conical portion that is difficult to remove because there is no part to grip.

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:

Disposable: Provides a single-use, secure solution that, once installed, cannot be removed by conventional methods. High-torque applications: Suitable for high-torque applications, ensuring a robust connection. Vibration Resistant: Maintains connection stability even in vibrating environments. Standard Tool Installation: Can be installed using standard wrenches or sockets for easy operation.

Scope of Application

Break Nut is widely used in applications where there is a need to prevent unauthorized dismantling, such as: Public Facilities: in public places such as schools and hospitals, to secure equipment and facilities against theft or vandalism. Fences and guardrails: in the installation of security fences and guardrails to ensure long-term tightness and security. Automotive industry: used on automotive wheel bolts to prevent wheel theft.
