A grade 2 steel hex nut, measuring 3/8 inches in diameter and featuring six flats for maximum grip and torque, ensures optimal holding power while tightening and securing assemblies fastened by bolts. The nylon lock-nut insert offers additional clamping strength without damaging the bolt thread's integrity; however, it must be mentioned that steel hex nuts offer an economic choice for light-duty applications as they lack corrosion resistance and are typically plated with zinc for protection. Its versatile size coupled with the standard coarse threads 16 makes it ideal for numerous industrial maintenance tasks, automotive, furniture manufacturing, or repair works where nuts are commonly employed in conjunction with bolts.
