Flange nuts are specialised fasteners featuring a wide flange at one end that acts as an integrated, non-spinning washer. This design helps distribute the pressure of the nut over a larger area of the part being secured, reducing the risk of damage and providing greater resistance to loosening.
These nuts are commonly used in applications requiring uniform pressure distribution across the fastened joint. The flange provides a larger bearing surface, making it ideal for use with softer materials or oversized holes. Typical applications include vehicle assembly, machinery, and furniture construction.
When it comes to choosing the right flange nuts, precision is key. Consider the material, size, thread type, and design features. Materials can range from steel to stainless steel, with corrosion-resistant coatings for added durability. The size and thread type must be compatible with the bolt being used. Additionally, some flange nuts have serrations on the flange for a locking action that resists loosening due to vibrations. This level of detail in the selection process ensures the best performance and longevity of your fastening system.
