Low-Strength Steel Square Nuts

Large flat sides make these nuts easy to grip with a wrench and keep them from rotating in channels and square holes. About half the strength of medium-strength steel square nuts, use them in light duty fastening applications, such as securing access panels.

Zinc-Plated Steel—Zinc-plated steel square nuts resist corrosion in wet environments.

Black-Zinc-Plated Steel—Black-zinc-plated steel square nuts resist corrosion in wet environments and have a black finish that blends in with dark surfaces.

Hot-Dipped Galvanized Steel—Hot-dipped galvanized steel square nuts have a thick coating for better corrosion resistance than zinc-plated steel nuts. They must be used with other hot-dipped galvanized fasteners.

Steel—Steel square nuts are best for dry environments, since moisture will cause them to rust.

18-8 Stainless Steel Thin-Profile Square Nuts

Two-thirds the height of typical square nuts and made of 18-8 stainless steel, these metric nuts are designed for use in low-clearance applications in humid, damp, and washdown environments. They’re often called square jam nuts because they can be jammed together to hold each other in place. They’re easily gripped with a wrench due to their flat, broad sides, which also prevent them from rotating in channels and square holes. Compared to hex nuts, a greater area is in contact with the fastened surface. And compared to steel nuts, they’re slightly less strong.

Black-Oxide 18-8 Stainless Steel—Black-oxide 18-8 stainless steel nuts have a dark surface color.

DIN 562—These nuts meet DIN 562, an international standard that signifies their material and dimensions are compatible with other products and tools.
