Stainless steel flange nuts

Flange Nut Overview Flange nuts, also known as flange face flanges, are a type of nut with a wide flange on one end that acts as a built-in washer. Made from hardened steel with a zinc-plated surface, flange nuts are widely used, depending on the model purchased, and are hexagonal in shape. To avoid damaging parts, this type of nut disperses the pressure of the nut onto the part being secured. In short, a "flange nut" is a fastener with a wide, rounded flange. Its washer-like base helps to evenly distribute the load pressure of the nut over a larger surface area. Flange lock nuts are hexagonal in shape and are used on assembly lines that require faster workflows. Stainless steel nut has a locking action and can be serrated in shape. To prevent the nut from rotating in the wrong direction, the serrated flange nut rotates at the proper angle to loosen the nut. The serrations help prevent the nut from vibrating and causing the fastener to move, thereby maintaining the nut's holding force…
