About Nuts, Materials, and Finishes

Metric Fine-Thread Medium-Strength Steel Thin Hex Nuts


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.
Steel nuts are best for dry environments, since exposure to moisture and chemicals will cause them to rust.
Nuts that meet DIN 936 adhere to international standards for dimensions and material composition to ensure compatibility with other products and tools. Although the DIN 936 standards are no longer active, they are commonly referenced globally.
