The most tamper-resistant nuts we offer, these have a hex head that breaks away upon tightening, leaving a non-removable cone. They can be installed using a standard wrench. Use them to reduce the risk of unwanted removal for objects in public spaces such as signs, lighting fixtures, and displays.
Aluminum—Aluminum nuts are lightweight, corrosion resistant in wet environments, and nonmagnetic.

These nuts have serrations that dig into the material surface to resist loosening and are narrow to fit in tight spaces. They must be installed with a nutdriver (sold separately). Use them to reduce the risk of unwanted removal for objects in public spaces such as signs, lighting fixtures, and displays.
