High Pressure Hexagon Nuts

High pressure hexagon nuts must be precisely matched in size. Even an error of 0.1 millimeter may lead to seal failure. You can use a gauge to measure the pitch and verify the hardness grade. Do not use mismatched bolts. The pressure rating depends on the overall assembly.

Product details and parameters

In an industrial environment, high pressure hexagon nuts are used in oil refineries to fix pipes and valves for handling high-pressure fluids. In power plants, these nuts are used to fix components in the steam and water systems. The hydraulic presses in manufacturing plants rely on them to keep the pressure-generating components intact. In the automotive industry, they are used in high-pressure fuel injection systems. They can ensure the safety and efficiency of high-voltage systems.

During installation, ensure that the thread dimensions of high pressure hexagon nuts match the bolts. At the same time, the threads of the nuts and bolts need to be cleaned to remove dirt or debris on them. After cleaning, if necessary, apply a small amount of anti-sticking agent. This helps prevent the nut from sticking to the bolt during the tightening process. Then, use a wrench to screw the nut onto the bolt and tighten it. But don't exert too much force.

High pressure hexagon nuts are installed in oil drilling platforms, chemical plants or water treatment systems. They are often used for flange connections of pipes transporting steam, oil or compressed air. Farmers use them in irrigation pumps and hydraulic machinery in factories as well.

Maintenance Considerations

Regularly check whether there is wear on the high pressure hexagon nuts, such as thread damage or cracks. If any problem is found, please replace the new nut immediately. In high humidity or chemical environments, clean the nuts regularly to prevent corrosion. You can also apply a protective coating to extend its service life.
