Heavy hex nuts are used for tightening and binding purposes. They can be easily tightened by using a wrench or screwdriver to achieve the desired torque value so that strong mechanical joints can be achieved. The heavy hex nut has six sides with chamfered corners on two adjacent faces which facilitate easy gripping during the installation process. Heavy Hex Nuts are one of the most common nuts available and are used with anchors, bolts, screws, studs, threaded rods and on any other fastener that has machine screw threads. Heavy hex nuts are designed with the thickness and truthfulness needed to perform under heavy loads. The use of advanced devices and vehicles has enlarged as a result of rapid population growth and industrialization subsidising to the growth of the hex nut market. On the basis of heavy hex nuts they are segmented into carbon steel nuts, stainless steel nuts and alloy steel nuts. Carbon steel nuts are made up of carbon steel, which is a type of alloy that contains iron and small amounts of other elements.

Carbon steel has a higher carbon content than other types of steel, making it harder and stronger. Stainless steel nuts are generally used in metallic systems with components made of stainless steel. They can be easily installed and removed without causing damage to the substrate or nut itself. Alloy steel nuts are the ones that have been made from alloy steel. These alloys which contain nickel and chromium mostly provide several benefits such as high mechanical properties and corrosion resistance to these nuts. Heavy hex nuts are worked at elevated temperature and high-pressure conditions. Our products are proposed high quality and quantity to the leading market.
