    Thin-Profile Hex Nuts

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Hex Nuts. Thin-Profile Hex Nuts.
    About half the height of standard-profile nuts, these fit in spaces with low clearance. You can also use them as jam nuts by threading them against another hex nut to hold it in place.
    Medium-Strength Steel
    These Grade 5 or Class 04 nuts are your go-to for fastening most machinery and equipment. To avoid stripped threads during installation, make sure your screw has a comparable strength rating.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—A step up from plain steel, the zinc plating withstands occasional exposure to moisture.
    Steel—Best for dry environments since moisture will cause these nuts to rust.

    Thin-Profile Bearing Nuts

    Used in pairs or with another bearing nut, these thin-profile nuts—often called shaft nuts—hold bearings, bushings, pulleys, and gears in place on your threaded shaft or spindle. Threading two nuts tightly against each other makes it harder for vibration to loosen your assembly than if you used only one nut. For the nut closer to the bearing, position the stepped face towards the bearing. These thin-profile nuts have holes on the side, so you can tighten and loosen them with a pin spanner wrench. All meet DIN 1816, an international standard for bearing locknut dimensions.
    Carbon Steel—Carbon steel bearing nuts are strong and resist wear.
    Thread Spacing—When choosing your thread spacing, consider the precision of your application. The finer the threads, the more control you have when making adjustments.
