China Thick Square Nut Manufacturer, Supplier, Factory

The square nut is indispensable for heavy-duty and high-torque applications where a standard hex nut may not provide sufficient bearing surface or resistance to loosening under vibration. Our Thick square nut for track, in particular, is engineered for demanding environments such as rail tracks, heavy machinery, and structural steelwork, offering superior load distribution and enhanced security. For specialized manufacturing needs, we also supply Semi Finished Square Nuts, providing versatility for custom fabrication and finishing processes. These components are manufactured from high-grade materials to ensure durability, reliability, and long-term performance, making them the preferred choice for industrial professionals.


When specifying the Thick Square Nut for your project, it is crucial to consider its technical parameters to guarantee a perfect fit and optimal function. Below is a detailed breakdown of the standard specifications for our most common Thick Square Nut variant. Please note that custom dimensions and materials can be supplied upon request.
