The core difference between the two lies in the flange base. The Hex flange weld nut is an enhanced version of the ordinary hexagonal welding nut, featuring an integrated flange disc. This difference results in various distinctions in structure, performance, and application. Here is the detailed comparison:
| Project | Hex flange weld nut | Ordinary Hexagonal Welding Nut |
| Bottom shape | With enlarged flange | Flat or flangeless |
| Pressure-bearing capacity | directly replace with flat washer | Additional flat washer is required |
| Welded bumps | 3 | 3 |
| Applicable scenarios | Cars, household appliances, thin plate structures | Thick plates, general welding |
| Cost | Slightly higher (with an additional flange forming) | Slightly lower |
For the sample of Hex flange weld nut, We have clear regulations to follow.
(1)For potential customers who need to test the performance grade of the nuts in the early stage, we usually provide a certain number of free samples (such as 5-10 pieces), but the shipping cost is usually borne by the customers.
(2)For customized products or high-value products, a sample fee will be charged. And the sample fee will be deducted from the payment when the formal order is issued later.

(1)Can this kind of Hex flange weld nut be used in an automated production line (robotic welding)?
It is highly suitable. The three-point raised platform design enables precise positioning, and combined with the vibrating tray for automatic feeding, it is suitable for the robot spot welding workstation.
(2)How do you ensure that the height of the solder bumps on each batch of products is consistent?
We use the cold heading forming process, and the tolerance of the bump height is controlled within ±0.05 mm.
(3)What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)? Is the sample free of charge?
For standard specifications, the MOQ is 1,000 pieces; for non-standard customization, it is 500 pieces. We offer free samples (2-5 pieces per specification), and the customer only needs to bear the international shipping cost.
(4)How long is the delivery period usually?
Standard products are available for shipment within 3 to 7 days; customized products take 15 to 25 working days. Bulk orders can be expedited upon negotiation.
