A Hex Nut is a six-sided threaded fastener used together with a compatible bolt or threaded stud to create a secure mechanical connection. The internal thread engages with the external thread of the mating fastener, while the hexagonal outer profile allows the nut to be tightened or loosened easily with a standard wrench or spanner.
The six-sided design provides practical access for tools and allows the nut to be tightened with sufficient torque. Hex Nuts are widely used across industrial, mechanical, construction, engineering, and maintenance applications and can be supplied in standard as well as customized dimensions.
