    About Hex Nuts
    industrial info icon

    Choose a hex nut with the right profile, material, and strength for your application.

    Left-Hand-Thread Thin-Profile Hex Nuts

    These nuts tighten when turned to the left. Use them with left-hand rods and screws to prevent counterclockwise-moving parts from loosening. About half the height of standard-profile nuts, these fit in spaces with low clearance. You can also use them as jam nuts by threading them against another hex nut to hold it in place.
    Medium-Strength Steel

    These Grade 5 or Class 04 nuts are your go-to for fastening most machinery and equipment. To avoid stripped threads during installation, make sure your screw has a comparable strength rating.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—A step up from plain steel, the zinc plating withstands occasional exposure to moisture.
    Black-Oxide Steel—Typically chosen for their appearance, these nuts have a dark, matte coating to create a finished look. They offer minimal corrosion resistance, so they're best for dry environments.

    Low-Strength Steel
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated, MultipleImages. Hex Nuts. Left-Hand-Thread Thin-Profile Hex Nuts.
    Rated Grade 2, Class 6, or lower, these nuts are about half as strong as medium-strength nuts. They are suitable for light duty fastening applications, such as securing access panels. Use them with screws that have a similar strength rating to avoid stripping threads during installation.
    Black-Oxide Steel—Typically chosen for their appearance, these nuts have a dark, matte coating to create a finished look. They offer minimal corrosion resistance, so they're best for dry environments.
    Steel—Best for dry environments since moisture will cause these nuts to rust.

    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these nuts resist rust. However, they won't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.
    Super-Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Superior to 18-8 stainless steel, these nuts won't degrade when exposed to harsh weather, salt water, and most chemicals.

    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these nuts resist rust. However, they won't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.
    Super-Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Superior to 18-8 stainless steel, these nuts won't degrade when exposed to harsh weather, salt water, and most chemicals.

    Low-Strength Steel with Material Certificate
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated, MultipleImages. Hex Nuts. Left-Hand-Thread Thin-Profile Hex Nuts.
    Rated Grade 2, Class 6, or lower, these nuts are about half as strong as medium-strength nuts. They are suitable for light duty fastening applications, such as securing access panels. Use them with screws that have a similar strength rating to avoid stripping threads during installation.
    Black-Oxide Steel—Typically chosen for their appearance, these nuts have a dark, matte coating to create a finished look. They offer minimal corrosion resistance, so they're best for dry environments.
    Certificates with a traceable lot number are available for these products. Download certificates from ORDER HISTORY after your order ships.
