Half as thick as regular hex nuts, these nuts fit into spaces with low height clearances. They are about half as strong as medium-strength steel, and are often used for light duty applications, such as securing access panels. Also known as jam nuts, they can be threaded together to form a locknut that won’t move or loosen due to vibration. When fastening threaded rod, you can use two nuts to create a point for tightening the rod with a wrench. These nuts have less tensile strength than a standard hex nut when used alone.

Steel nuts are best for dry environments, since exposure to moisture and chemicals will cause them to rust.

Nuts that meet DIN 936 and ISO 4035 (formerly DIN 439B) adhere to international standards for dimensions and material composition to ensure compatibility with other products and tools. Although the DIN 936 and DIN 439B standards are no longer active, they are commonly referenced globally.

These nuts are half the height of standard hex nuts, and have closely spaced threads to prevent loosening from vibration. They are not compatible with coarse threads. Half as strong as medium-strength steel nuts, they are often used for light-duty applications, such as fastening signs in place.

Also known as jam nuts, they can be used in place of standard nuts when height clearances are tight, or threaded together to form a locknut. When fastening threaded rod, you can use two nuts to create a point for tightening the rod into place with a wrench. These nuts have less tensile strength than a standard hex nut when used alone.

Useful in low-clearance applications, these metric nuts are roughly half the height of standard hex nuts, but aren’t as strong. Commonly used as locknuts, threading a thin nut against any other hex nut prevents loosening caused by vibration. You can also use them as jam nuts by threading two of these thin nuts against each other on a threaded rod to create a gripping point for turning the rod without damaging its threads. All are 18-8 stainless steel, which is nearly as strong as steel but won’t rust in outdoor, washdown, and other corrosive environments.

DIN 936 nuts are sometimes taller and wider than ISO 4035 nuts. Although it’s no longer active, DIN 936 is still a commonly referenced standard for material and dimensional compatibility.

Made of 316 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance—including in salt water—these nuts tighten to the left and won’t loosen from counterclockwise motion. For use in low-clearance areas, they’re half the height of standard hex nuts. They can also be jammed against another nut to hold it in place. When used with a standard hex nut, they’re good for fastening most equipment.

Nuts that meet DIN 439B comply with international dimensional and material standards. Although no longer active, this standard is often referenced for compatibility.

These nuts tighten to the left and won’t loosen from counterclockwise motion. Made from brass, they resist corrosion, conduct electricity, and are nonmagnetic. They’re half the height of standard hex nuts, so they’re good for use in low-clearance areas. Jam them against another nut to hold them in place. When used with a standard hex nut, they’re suitable for fastening most equipment.
