Heavy Hex Nuts are oversized hex nuts for structural bolting applications. Heavy hex nuts are often called as hexagon heavy nuts or large hex nuts. Heavy hexagon nuts are used with heavy hex bolts or screws. Hevay hex nuts are oversized, both in thickness and hexagon across flat dimensions. Heavy Hexagonal body requires more wrenching torque while supplying enough strength to the bolting joint. Heavy hex nut dimensions are defined in both metric and imperials sizes with unified national coarse pitch (UNC), fine pitch (UNF), fixed pitch (UN) and iso metric thread profile. These are produced across all material categories and astm specifications.
