What is Hex Nut?
A hex nut is a fastener with a hexagonal shape that has internal threads. It is designed to screw onto a bolt or a threaded rod, and the hexagonal shape allows for easy tightening and loosening with tools like wrenches or sockets. Hex nuts are incredibly versatile and are one of the most commonly used types of nuts in construction, machinery, and other applications where a secure fastening is necessary.
The “hex” in hex nut comes from “hexagon,” which refers to the six-sided polygon shape that provides good angles for tools to engage. The variety of sizes and materials available make hex nuts suitable for many different environments and purposes. They can be found in various finishes such as zinc-plated, stainless steel, and galvanized to resist corrosion. Hex nuts are standardized with metric and imperial units and conform to various strength and material standards depending on their intended use.
