Nuts
What are Nuts ?
A nut is a type of fastener with a threaded hole. Nuts are almost always used opposite a mating bolt to fasten a stack of parts together. The two partners are kept together by a combination of their threads’ friction, a slight stretch of the bolt, and compression of the parts. In applications where vibration or rotation may work a nut loose, various locking mechanisms may be employed.
Nuts are one of the most important fastener. Nuts are used along with bolt in order to fix, assemble structures. Nuts are wrenched over the threads of bolt or stud by applying torque. There are various types of nuts e.g. Hex nut, square nut, wing nut. Special catagories such as nylock nut, castel nut etc.
There are vairous types of Bolts viz :
Heavy Hex Nuts | Hex Nuts | Cap Nuts | Doomed Nuts |
Hex Coupling Nuts | Serrated Flange Nuts | Square Nuts | High Nuts |
K Lock Nuts | Castle Nuts | Wing Nuts | Jam Nuts |
Nylon Lock Nuts | Flex Lock Nuts | 2 Way Nuts | Flange Lock Nuts |
Customised Nuts | Slotted Nuts | Reversible Lock Nuts | Hex Machine Screw Nuts |
Nylon Lock Jam Nuts | Well Nuts | Tee Nuts | Blank Nuts |
Collar Nuts | Spindle Nuts | Weld Nuts | Pipe Fitting Nuts |
