ASME/ANSI Stainless Steel Hexagon Slotted Nuts

ASME/ANSI Stainless Steel Hexagon Slotted Nuts (or more accurately, Carbon Steel Hexagon Slotted Nuts) are fasteners that follow the standards of ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) and ANSI (American National Standards Institute). They have a hexagonal shape that is easy to tighten with a wrench or pliers, and a slot on the top that can be turned with a screwdriver when a wrench cannot be used or quick disassembly is required. This nut is widely used in various mechanical connections due to its simple design and easy installation.

Surface treatment:

Zinc-plated: Zinc-plated treatment provides good corrosion protection and is suitable for indoor and general outdoor environments.
Black: Usually refers to nuts that have not been specially treated or have only been simply blackened, suitable for applications that do not require high appearance and are cost-sensitive.
Dacromet: An advanced anti-corrosion coating with excellent corrosion resistance, wear resistance and heat resistance, especially suitable for harsh environments or occasions that require long-term use.

Material:

Carbon Steel: Carbon steel is a commonly used metal material with good strength and toughness, relatively low cost, and is a common material for manufacturing fasteners such as nuts. Although you mentioned stainless steel, the material is clearly carbon steel in the parameters provided. Stainless steel versions (such as 304, 316, etc.) are more suitable for occasions where higher corrosion resistance is required.

Scope or scenario:

Mechanical equipment: Used to connect various parts of mechanical equipment to ensure the stable operation of the equipment.
Automotive industry: In automobile manufacturing, this type of nut is widely used for fastening of engine, chassis, body and other parts.
Construction engineering: In steel structures, bridges, pipelines and other construction facilities, it is used to fix and connect various components.
Power equipment: In power facilities, such as transformers, distribution boxes and other equipment assembly and maintenance, hexagonal slotted nuts also play an important role.
Agricultural machinery: In the manufacture and maintenance of agricultural machinery, this type of nut is used to connect and fix various transmission parts.

Application areas:

Manufacturing: Including automobiles, machinery, electronics, electrical appliances and other industries.
Construction industry: steel structure engineering, pipeline installation and other fields.
Energy industry: power facilities, oil and gas pipelines, etc.
Transportation: manufacturing and maintenance of vehicles such as cars, trains, and airplanes.
