    Also known as U-nuts, these nuts squeeze both sides of thin panels for a tighter grip than J-nuts. The hex- or square-shaped barrel gives your wrench a spot to grip, so you can keep these nuts in place as you tighten a machine screw. For secure fastening, multiple threads in the barrel engage with your screw.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—Zinc-plated steel nuts are corrosion resistant in wet environments.
    Black Phosphate-Coated Steel—Black phosphate-coated steel nuts are mildly corrosion resistant in dry environments.
