1. Hex Nuts
Hex Nuts are six-sided fasteners widely used in construction, automotive, and engineering industries. We offer high-quality Hex Nuts in Stainless Steel, High Tensile, Monel, Inconel, Hastelloy, and more. Ready stock available for export and supply.
Uses: Hex Nuts are widely utilized across industries like construction, automotive, and engineering. They are essential for fastening bolts and securing components in applications such as machinery, infrastructure, and heavy-duty projects.
Characteristics: Hex Nuts come in various sizes (M6 to M42), materials (including High Tensile, Stainless Steel, Inconel, Hastelloy, and others), and coatings (like PTFE, Zinc, and Nickel) to suit diverse industrial needs.

2. Hex Jam Nuts
Hex Jam Nuts are thin, low-profile nuts used for locking standard nuts in place. Common in construction projects like bridges, docks, and highways, they come in various sizes, materials, and grades.
Uses: Hex Jam Nuts are primarily used to prevent loosening in machinery, construction, and automotive applications. They are often paired with standard nuts for added locking strength.
Characteristics: Available in sizes from M12 to M100, Hex Jam Nuts come in materials like Stainless Steel, High Tensile, and Inconel, with coatings including PTFE and Zinc for enhanced durability.
3. Hex Coupling Nuts
Hex Coupling Nuts are long, hexagonal nuts used to connect two threaded rods or pipes, ensuring extended length and secure alignment in structural applications.
Uses: Hex Coupling Nuts are designed to extend the length of bolts or rods, providing secure connections in structural frameworks, piping systems, and electrical installations
Characteristics: These nuts are available in sizes from M4 to M100 and made from materials like Stainless Steel, Inconel, and Carbon Steel. They come in various finishes, such as PTFE coating and Zinc plating, for added protection
4. Hex Flange Nuts
Hex Flange Nuts have a wide, flanged base that provides a larger bearing surface, ensuring a secure fit and reducing the chance of damage to the material being fastened.
Uses: Hex Flange Nuts are commonly used in heavy-duty applications where secure fastening is required, such as in machinery, automotive systems, and structural assemblies.
Characteristics: Hex Flange Nuts have a built-in flange that evenly distributes pressure and enhances stability, making them perfect for high-vibration and heavy-duty applications.
5. Slotted Nuts
Slotted Nuts have slots cut into the top, allowing them to be secured with a cotter pin for added safety in heavy-duty applications.
Uses: Slotted Nuts are ideal for securing components in machinery and structural projects, ensuring stability in applications where locking or adjustments are necessary, such as in construction and industrial machinery.
Characteristics: Featuring a slotted top, these nuts allow for secure fastening with a cotter pin, enhancing safety in high-demand environments.
