#6-3/8 M5-M36 Application and Characteristics of Single Chamfered Hexagon Nuts

In the fastener industry, single chamfered hexagon nuts have attracted much attention due to their unique design and wide range of applications. We will focus on single chamfered hexagon nuts in the specification range of #6-3/8 to M5-M36, including their definition, characteristics, applications, and related international standards and supplier information.

1. Definition and Characteristics
Single chamfered hexagon nuts, as the name suggests, are hexagonal nuts with a single chamfered edge. This design is not only easy to install and disassemble, but also effectively prevents scratches between the nut and the bolt head during installation, thereby improving work efficiency and extending service life. Its specifications range from #6-3/8 (imperial size) to M5-M36 (metric size), covering a variety of application scenarios from small and precise to large and heavy industries.

2. Application fields
Automobile industry: In automobile manufacturing, single chamfer hexagon nuts are widely used in key parts such as engines, chassis, suspension systems, etc. to ensure the firm connection of parts and the safe operation of vehicles.
Mechanical industry: In heavy machinery, machine tools, aerospace and other fields, single chamfer hexagon nuts are favored for their high strength and excellent fastening performance. They can withstand huge loads and vibrations to ensure the stable operation of equipment.
Construction industry: In building steel structures, single chamfer hexagon nuts are used to connect key components such as beams and columns to ensure the overall stability and safety of buildings.
Electronic and electrical appliances: In the assembly process of electronic equipment and electrical products, single chamfer hexagon nuts are widely used because of their easy installation and disassembly.

3. International standards
Regarding the international standards of single chamfer hexagon nuts, different countries and regions have different regulations. Here are some common standards:

GB/T 18230.6-2000: This standard specifies the technical requirements for hot-dip galvanizing of single chamfer type 1 hexagon nuts for bolted structures of grades 5, 6 and 8. These nuts are suitable for various high-strength structural connections.
ISO 4775-1984: This standard sets technical requirements for grades 8 and 10 for single chamfered hexagon nuts (large opposite sides) for bolting high-strength steel structures. These nuts are particularly suitable for occasions with extremely high requirements for strength and durability.
DIN series standards: There are also a series of standards for hexagonal nuts in the German industrial standards, such as DIN 934, DIN 985, etc. These standards provide detailed regulations on the size, tolerance, mechanical properties, etc. of nuts.
