    About 10% wider and taller than standard-profile hex nuts, these handle heavier loads by distributing them over a larger area.
    Bronze
    Silicon Bronze—More resistant to salt water than brass, these nuts are a good choice for marine environments. They are also stronger than brass and more resistant to abrasion and wear. Choose them for machinery with rotating parts or other applications where nearby components may rub against the nut.
