2# Hexagon thin nut with flange

Meet the 2# hexagon thin nut with flange—a compact, load-distributing fastener designed for precision assemblies where space is at a premium. The integrated flange creates a broad bearing surface, so you can clamp with confidence without a separate washer, reducing parts in your bill of materials while protecting delicate surfaces.

Designed for light- to medium-duty applications, this nut pairs with the matching bolt to deliver consistent tension and alignment across assemblies like metal enclosures, electronics housings, cabinet builds, and automotive interior trims. Its thin profile lets you fasten in recessed or tight spots where a regular nut would crowd the joint.

Key benefits

• Integrated flange for even load distribution: the flange spreads clamping force over a larger area, reducing the risk of pull-through and surface damage.
• Low-profile design: fits in confined spaces and helps achieve flush finishes on panels and trims.
• Simple installation with standard tools: hex shape provides reliable grip for wrenches or sockets in tight workspaces.
• Reduced hardware count: no separate washer needed, streamlining assembly and inventory.

Material and compatibility

Note: The listing specifies a 2# size hex nut with flange. Use with corresponding bolt size and thread pitch to ensure proper engagement. Check your project’s torque requirements and consult fastener charts for correct tightening to avoid over- or under-clamping.

Practical use cases

• Assembling lightweight metal panels in electronics enclosures where a clean, low-profile fastener is preferred.
• Sheet-metal furniture and shelving, where flange helps protect finishes and distributes load from fasteners.
• Automotive interior trims or dashboard assemblies where space is limited and vibration resistance matters.
• Appliance assemblies that require reliable clamping with minimal risk of thread pull-out.

Tips for best results

• Pair with bolts of the matching diameter and pitch; ensure thread engagement is sufficient for your load.
• Torque to recommended values for your material and coating—avoid over-tightening to prevent flange deformation.
• Inspect flange seating during installation to confirm flat, even contact with the mating surface.
