Application scenarios of nuts
The selection of nuts directly affects the safety and durability of the overall structure. The main application fields include:
1.Industrial Machinery and Automation
Common types: hexagonal nuts, square nuts
Typical scenarios: Fixing the frame of the conveying equipment (square nuts ensure stable load-bearing), tightening the joints of the mechanical arm (hexagonal nuts facilitate torque adjustment), and locking the motor base (carbon steel hexagonal nuts ensure strength).
2.Automobile traffic
Common types: flange nuts, slotted nuts
Typical scenarios: Chassis connection (flange nuts are shock-resistant), drive shaft locking (slotted nuts + split pins prevent loosening), brake caliper installation (stainless steel flange nuts are resistant to brake fluid corrosion).
3.Energy, power and heavy equipment
Common types: Hot-dip galvanized hexagonal nuts, high-strength nuts
Typical scenarios: assembly of generator sets, connection of port machinery, fixation of power towers (hot-dip galvanizing for anti-corrosion), maintenance of heavy mining equipment.
4.Electronic medical equipment
Common types: Cover nuts, small stainless steel nuts
Typical scenarios: Grounding of server cabinets (conductive stainless steel nuts), packaging of medical equipment shells (dust-proof and contact-proof cover nuts), internal fixation of precision instruments (non-magnetic brass nuts).

Clarify the requirements: Provide specific parameter requirements
1.Material (such as 304 stainless steel, 8.8 grade carbon steel, brass)
2.Type (such as slotted nuts, special-shaped flange nuts)
3.Dimensions (thread specifications, nut thickness, flange diameter,
FAQ
Q: How to choose the scene for nuts of different materials?
A: For damp or corrosive scenarios, choose stainless steel or hot-dip galvanized nuts. For precision/non-magnetic requirements, choose brass nuts; For heavy-duty load-bearing, choose high-strength carbon steel nuts.
Q: What should I do if the nut is prone to loosening?
A: Use slotted nuts with cotter pins and flange nuts, or use spring washers and apply anaerobic adhesive.
Q: What other information is required for custom nuts?
A: Supplement the usage environment (temperature, chemical contact), force requirements, surface treatment, and special certifications (such as IATF16949).
Q: Can flange nuts replace "ordinary nuts + flat washers"?
A: Most scenarios can be replaced; When ultra-high strength load-bearing is required and elastic washers are needed, it is recommended to retain the original combination.
Q: Do nuts need to be replaced immediately if they rust?
A: Minor rust can be removed and it can still be used. Rust enters the thread, is difficult to disassemble and assemble, or in waterproof/pressure-bearing scenarios, it needs to be replaced immediately.
