Stainless Steel Structural & Heavy Hex Nuts

Stainless steel heavy hex nuts, available in grades 304 and 316, are essential fasteners known for their exceptional durability and corrosion resistance. These nuts are specifically designed for heavy-duty applications that require reliable and secure fastening. With a diameter range of 1/4 inch up to 1 inch, they offer versatility to accommodate various bolt sizes.

Grade 304 stainless steel nuts are widely used for general-purpose applications. They provide excellent resistance to corrosion, oxidation, and most chemicals, making them suitable for indoor and outdoor environments. These nuts are an ideal choice for non-marine applications where moderate corrosion resistance is required.

On the other hand, grade 316 stainless steel nuts offer enhanced corrosion resistance, particularly in aggressive environments, such as marine and coastal areas or industrial settings with exposure to corrosive chemicals. They feature higher levels of molybdenum, which provides superior resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh conditions.

Stainless steel heavy hex nuts are recognized for their sturdy construction, which enables them to withstand high-pressure and high-stress applications. Their hexagonal shape provides a larger bearing surface, distributing the load evenly and minimizing the risk of nut damage or loosening. Whether used in construction, machinery, or other heavy-duty industries, these nuts offer reliable fastening and peace of mind.
