  2. Flange nut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flange_nut

    A self-aligning nut, also known as a spherical nut [2] or leveling nut, is a type of nut used in applications where the fastener is not perpendicular to the surface to which the nut anchors. A flange nut is used inside a specially shaped dished-out washer. The device is commonly used in the aerospace industry.

  3. Nut (hardware) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nut_(hardware)

    The cage has two wings that when compressed allow the cage to be inserted into the square holes Clip-on nut: J-nut or U-nut, sheet metal nut, speed nut (ambiguously) Designed to be clipped to sheet metal Coupling nut: Extension nut A threaded fastener for joining two male threads, most commonly a threaded rod,[1][2] but also pipes Flange nut ...

  4. Bolted joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolted_joint

    The thicker nut applies more force to the joint, first relieving the force on the threads of the thinner nut and then applying a force in the opposite direction. In this way the thicker nut presses tightly on the side of the threads away from the joint, while the thinner nut presses on the side of the threads nearest the joint, tightly locking ...

  5. Wrench size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrench_size

    spanner (wrench) size and thread diameter of a hex nut. Width across flats is the distance between two parallel surfaces on the head of a screw or bolt, or a nut, mostly for torque transmission by positive locking. The term width across flats (AF) is used for the following forms: 2-socket = round material with two surfaces

  6. Coupling nut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling_nut

    A coupling nut A coupling nut and its orthographic view. A coupling nut, also known as extension nut, is a threaded fastener for joining two male threads, most commonly a threaded rod, [1] [2] but also pipes. [3] The outside of the fastener is usually hexagonal so a wrench can hold it.

  7. List of screw and bolt types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screw_and_bolt_types

    A fastener comprising a mated pair of screw and post (binding barrel), which are a machine screw and a nut that is barrel-shaped. The nut has a flange and a protruding boss that is internally threaded. The bolt (mated pair, screw and post) sits within the components being fastened, and the flange provides the bearing surface.

  8. Bolt (fastener) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolt_(fastener)

    Allow nuts to be attached to what is really a screw. Hex bolt - Bolt with a hexagonal head and threaded shank. Section immediately under head may be unthreaded for fastening thicker materials. J bolt - Bolt shaped like the letter J, used for tie downs. Only the straight section is threaded for a nut.

  9. Split beam nut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split_beam_nut

    A split beam nut, also known as a split hex nut [1] or slotted beam nut, [2] is a locknut with slots cut in the top that separate the outside end into two [3] or more sections that are bent slightly inward, making the thread diameter undersized in the slotted portion.
