In order to extend the service life of hexagonal shoulder nut with height 1.5d, it is generally stored in a dry environment to prevent corrosion caused by moisture. Regularly check for wear, especially in dynamic operating environments, and apply lubricant when installed in extreme temperature environments for easy disassembly.
Hexagonal shoulder nut with height 1.5d is a usually manufactured from high-grade carbon steel (grade 8 or 10.9) or stainless steel (A2/A4), balancing strength and corrosion resistance. In extreme working conditions, special materials provide higher serviceability. The heat treatment process is used to make the hexagonal shoulder nut reach the appropriate hardness, the hexagonal shoulder nut with height 1.5d suitable for heavy machinery.
Q: What are the advantages of a hexagonal shoulder nut with height 1.5d versus a standard nut with a separate washer?
A: Hexagon collar nuts with a height of 1.5d eliminate the need for separate washers, reducing installation configuration time and parts inventory. The flanged base of the hexagonal shoulder nut with height 1.5d increases contact area and prevents material damage. Hexagonal shoulder nuts outperform standard nuts, especially in automotive chassis applications.
