What is the difference between hexagon Flange Nuts and general Nuts ?


Flange hexagon nut and general hexagon nut, the difference between the two words is very different. What is the difference between flange hexagon nuts and ordinary hexagon nuts? Here's an explanation for you!

Flange nut is also called flange toothed Hexagonal Nut. From the appearance point of view, both kinds of nuts are hexagonal headed. Flange hexagonal nut has one more round flange toothed pattern than hexagonal nut. Flange face hexagonal bolt There is a gasket-like structure between the head and the thread.

Flange nut and general hexagonal nut are basically the same in size and thread specification, but compared with hexagonal nut, it is a one-piece gasket and nut, and there are anti-slip tooth patterns on the bottom, which increases the nut and work piece. Compared with the combination of ordinary nut and washer, it is firmer and has greater tensile force.

The surface contact area of the flange nut and the connector is large, which determines its use. When the two parts connected by the bolt and nut are connected, the bolt hole of one part is usually processed very large, so that the two parts are connected. It is very convenient to find the alignment. The bolt connection can be realized without the two holes being correct. If the bolt hole is enlarged, the contact area between the ordinary nut and the connected part will be reduced, so this kind of flange surface is used. Nuts can avoid this.

The flange surface of the nut has grooves on the flange surface, which can not only increase the contact area, but also prevent loosening, which is common in rotating mechanisms. The flange nut surface itself has the anti-slip and stop functions of the Flat Washer and the Spring Washer, so there is no need to add the flat washer and the spring washer during assembly, which will be counterproductive. Compared with ordinary hexagon nuts, flange hexagon nuts are more stable, firmer, and have an anti-loosening effect.
