Hexagonal Mild Steel Round Edges Heavy Fitting Mild Steel Ms Nuts Hardness: Hard

Hexagonal nuts are typically constructed of steel that has been precision cut using a steel cutting machine. The entire procedure takes only a few minutes, and thousands of nuts can be produced in that time. Hex nuts are frequently found with hex bolts. Its application is not restricted to hex-headed bolts. The hexagonal shape allows for easy wrenching while still applying sufficient torque to the bolting joint. Standard (finished) hex nuts are somewhat larger and thicker than heavy hex nuts. There are several classes, with the heavy pattern being the most common for big diameter, high strength bolts. These Nuts are renowned for their long life and minimum maintenance. A galvanized fastener will last far longer than a bolt that hasn't been coated. Galvanized steel corrodes at 1/30 the rate of bare steel in the same environment, according to the American Galvanizers Association.
