Type 2 Single Chamfered Hexagon Nut

Type 2 single chamfered hexagon nut is thicker and stronger than Type 1, and the load capacity is higher than that of Type 1, making them suitable for heavy loads or high-requirement scenarios.Type 1 is suitable for light work, while Type 2 is suitable for heavy machinery or structural loads. However, Type 2 is more costly and heavier.

Type 2 single chamfered hexagon nut is a relatively affordable hexagonal nut that does not require heat treatment. Type 2 nuts are mostly used in applications where assembly and disassembly are often required, such as aerospace, automotive, construction, machinery, and other applications that require relatively strong connectors.

Product details and parameters

Type 2 single chamfered hexagon nut is installed on truck frames, conveyor belt systems or agricultural equipment. They can withstand greater torque, preventing the nut from stripping, and the chamfer helps to quickly align the bolt. They are too cumbersome for shelves or basic furniture.

When choosing the type 2 single chamfered hexagon nut, the bolt size should be considered first. Match the thread diameter (e.g. M12, ¾ ") and pitch (coarse thread or fine thread). Chamfering will add a small Angle to one side of the thread. When tightening, avoid misscrewing the threads. Do not mix metric and imperial threads, as this will damage the threads.

The type 2 single chamfered hexagon nut can guide the bolts more quickly, thereby reducing the downtime of the equipment in mass production. Hot-dip galvanized nuts are suitable for outdoor use, but should be avoided in corrosive environments where the coating may wear out. Do not reuse the nuts on discarded equipment.

Installation Tips

When installing the type 2 single chamfered hexagon nut, the chamfer faces the bolt to make the threaded connection smoother. Use a torque wrench to tighten it. Be careful that over-tightening may damage the bolt. It is recommended to use high-grade bolts (with the same strength grade) and hardened washers in combination.
