Made from Grade 5 steel, these inch-sized nuts are suitable for most fastening applications.

These nuts are half the height of standard hex nuts, and have closely spaced threads to prevent loosening from vibration. Half as strong as medium-strength steel nuts, they are often used for light-duty applications, such as fastening signs in place.

These nuts should be used for light duty fastening applications, such as securing access panels.

These nuts are about 25% stronger than medium-strength steel thin hex nuts. Available in inch thread sizes.

Useful in low-clearance applications, these metric nuts are roughly half the height of standard hex nuts, but aren’t as strong. All are 18-8 stainless steel, which is nearly as strong as steel but won’t rust in outdoor, washdown, and other corrosive environments.

These nuts tighten when turned to the left; once fastened, they resist loosening from counterclockwise motion.

These metric nuts are made of 316 stainless steel and half as tall as regular hex nuts—use them around chemicals and salt water when space is limited.

With threads that tighten to the left and made of 316 stainless steel, these nuts won’t loosen from counterclockwise motion in saltwater and corrosive environments. They’re half the height of standard hex nuts, so they fit where there’s low clearance.

Made from brass, these metric nuts are corrosion resistant in wet environments, electrically conductive, and nonmagnetic. About half the height of standard hex nuts, they are useful in low-clearance applications but have less tensile strength.

Plastic nuts are chemical resistant, nonconductive, and lightweight.

Bronze nuts are stronger and more resistant to salt water than brass nuts.

These nuts are often used in conjunction with an extra-wide hex nut to fasten Grade 9 bolts in heavy machinery, such as earth-moving equipment.

Stainless steel nuts have excellent corrosion resistance in most environments.

These locknuts are about half the height of standard nylon-insert locknuts. Use them in light duty low clearance applications or jam one against a hex nut to hold it in place.

These Grade 8 locknuts are about 25% stronger than medium-strength steel thin locknuts.

These locknuts have good chemical resistance and may be mildly magnetic.

More corrosion resistant than 18-8 stainless steel locknuts, these have excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water.

Use these locknuts for light duty fastening applications, such as securing access panels.

More corrosion resistant than 18-8 stainless steel locknuts, these have excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water.

Stainless steel locknuts have excellent corrosion resistance in most environments.
