About Nuts, Materials, and Finishes

Low-Strength Steel Thin Hex Nuts

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

Left-Hand Threaded Low-Strength Steel Thin Hex Nuts

These nuts tighten when turned to the left; once fastened, they resist loosening from counterclockwise motion. They’re Grade 2 steel, so they can be used for fastening panels and other light duty fastening applications

18-8 Stainless Steel Thin Hex Nuts

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

Metric 18-8 Stainless Steel Thin Hex Nuts

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.

Metric Fine-Thread 18-8 Stainless Steel Thin Hex Nuts

Made with fine-pitch threads, vibration is less likely to loosen these metric nuts than those with coarse-pitch threads since the threads sit closer together. Also called jam nuts, they are roughly half the height of standard hex nuts, so they’re good for applications with low clearance.
