    Weld these nuts into tube ends to attach threaded fittings such as rod ends. The welded connection is stronger than tapping a tube directly. These nuts are often used to link control arms and suspensions. Also known as tube adapters and weldable threaded tube ends.

    Weld Nuts

    Add permanent threads to thin metal with our go-to weld nuts. Unlike press-fit and rivet nuts, these nuts fuse to the base metal, so they won’t twist and pull out. Three evenly spaced projections concentrate heat away from the threads to prevent them from deforming and create consistent welds. All have a collar pilot that guides the nut into the hole, holds it in place while welding, and protects the threads from weld spatter. You can also install them on thick pieces of metal.
    Steel—Best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust. Made of uncoated steel, these nuts require minimal prep. Weld them to uncoated steel surfaces.

    Square Weld Nuts

    Image of Product. Bottom orientation. Weld Nuts. Square Weld Nuts.
    With four symmetrical projections, these nuts create the strongest hold in our offering. Unlike rectangular weld nuts, each projection is equidistant from the threads, so welds wrap evenly for extra strength and twist resistance. Projections concentrate heat away from the threads to prevent them from deforming and create consistent welds. All nuts have a collar pilot that guides them into the hole, holds them in place while welding, and protects the threads from weld spatter.

    These weld nuts prevent fasteners from backing out of assemblies that rotate counterclockwise. Their left-hand threads pair with left-hand screws and rods to stop the fastener from loosening as the assembly turns. Weld them to the end of a tube for a stronger connection than tapping the tube directly. Also known as tube adapters and weldable threaded tube ends.

    Weld permanent threads in channels and other tight spaces without adding a barrel bump that gets in the way. These nuts have a short barrel that tucks under low surfaces and a slim footprint that fits between narrow channel walls.
    Steel—Best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust. Made of uncoated steel, these nuts require minimal prep. Weld them to uncoated steel surfaces.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—Suitable for outdoor use, these nuts resist rust from water and mild chemicals. Weld them to stainless steel surfaces.
    Number of Projections—More projections lead to more consistent welds by concentrating heat and protecting the threads from deforming.

    Add permanent threads on corners and near edges. With a slim base and a short, offset barrel, these weld nuts fit in tight spaces such as channels and low-clearance areas.
    Steel—Best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust. Made of uncoated steel, these nuts require minimal prep. Weld them to uncoated steel surfaces.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—A step up from plain steel, these nuts withstand occasional exposure to moisture. Weld them to uncoated steel surfaces. If MIG or TIG welding, grind the zinc plating off the part of the nut you intend to weld.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—Suitable for outdoor use, these nuts resist rust from water and mild chemicals. Weld them to stainless steel surfaces.

    Help screws pass through perfectly every time. These nuts float inside a rectangular retainer that shifts and tilts to compensate for misalignment. A pilot tip locates the hole, and the retainer holds the nut in place during welding.
    Steel with Steel Retainer—Best for dry environments since moisture will create rust. Weld them to steel surfaces.
