• Hex Nuts are almost always used in conjunction with a mating bolt to fasten multiple parts together the two partners are kept together by a combination of their threads friction with slight elastic deformation which is a slight stretching of the bolt and compression of the parts to be held together.
• The nut threads against the bolt threads, and the nut face against the bearing surface, with a constant force, so that the nut cannot rotate without overcoming the friction
• External hex drives can be turned with an adjustable wrench, combination wrench and 6- or 12-point sockets and offers high torque transfer.
• The vast majority of stainless steel fasteners are produced with metals from the austenitic family. Their high levels of chromium and nickel provide tough corrosion resistance and the ability to withstand considerable physical strain without fracturing, albeit at a higher cost than the martensitic varieties.
• Made of stainless steel grade 18-8 which offers a high level of chemical and corrosion resistance and strength that will out perform and out last all zinc plated fasteners for years with out the need to perform costly and time consuming maintenance.
