Rivet nuts are fundamentally an expanding nut that attaches onto a steel sheet surface for bolting purposes, where a simple hole opening is not possible because the material is too thin to hold a bolt or a screw.

Rivet nuts (also know as rivnuts, blind nuts or nut-serts) are internally threaded inserts, used in applications with small material (wall) thickness. They create a strong thread in thin sheets of material for high strength fastening from bolts and other threaded articles.

A flange nut is a fastener with a wide flange at one end that acts as a washer. The flange distributes the pressure of the nut over the part being secured, reducing the chance of damage. Flange nuts are often hexagonal in shape and can be made from materials like low carbon steel, alloy steel, or stainless steel.

Heavy-hex nut with a flanged face. This large bearing surface prevents damage to the part underneath the nut and provides extra strength. Ideal for clamping over a slot. Fully machined from solid barstock for extra strength, unlike inferior substitutes.

MB and MBL lock washers are locking devices, used to secure KM, KML and HM .. T lock nuts onto a shaft or adapter sleeve and prevent unintentional loosening. MB .. A is a stronger version of the MB washer.

The M6 Dome Nuts, are 6mm in internal diameter made from SS304 stainless steel material. These dome nuts provide a sleek, rounded finish to your projects, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and practical performance.

Nyloc nuts feature a nylon collar in the top portion of the nut that locks the nut in place by essentially squeezing the threads of the bolt as the nut is tightened. In scientific terms, the friction that is created by the radial compressive force of the nut turning against the thread prevents it from loosening.

Lock nut with metric thread, for locking by lock washer. KM and KML lock nuts are used to locate bearings onto a shaft. They have metric threads and four equally spaced slots located around their circumference to accommodate a spanner.

Stainless Steel Dome Nuts are used to conceal some fasteners and sharp threads for protection. The dome nuts have a dome shaped end that is blunt and does not have sharp lines.

An insert nut provides a threaded socket for a wooden workpiece, similar to a wall anchor. Insert nuts are inserted into a pre-drilled hole by one of two means: screw in and hammer in. In both cases, the external protrusions bite into the wood, preventing the nut from either turning or pulling out.

You can twist a wing nut onto the end of a bolt to prevent the connected objects from pulling away. Wing nuts feature internal threading, so they can run up and down the bolts with which they are used. The main benefit of wing nuts, however, is their ease of installation and removal.

Low Head socket head cap screws are high strength, precision fasteners that are designed to be used in applications where head height is a problem. Because of their reduced head height and smaller socket size, they cannot be preloaded as high as a standard socket head cap screw.

Locking nuts or lock nuts are special types of fastener designed to achieve a secure fixing. Some suppliers call them self-locking nuts or stiffnuts. They are screwed onto a bolt or threaded rod just like standard nuts, but a lock nut will then resist loosening under torque or vibration forces.

M16 HT Hex Nut Suitable for fastening most machinery and equipment. Specifications Met DIN 934. 

A Nyloc nut, also known as a nylon insert lock nut, is a type of fastener with a nylon insert that prevents the nut from loosening due to vibrations or other forces. Nyloc nuts are used in a variety of applications, including construction, automotive, and mechanical engineering
