Steel Hex Weld Nuts
With three weld points, these hex weld nuts create a secure hold on steel surfaces. They stand up to high torque and pull force better than rivet and press-fit nuts, making them the strongest way to add permanent threads to sheet metal. You can also install them on thick pieces of metal. Made of uncoated steel, they require minimal prep for welding to uncoated steel surfaces. All have a collar pilot to guide the nut into the hole and hold it in place while welding. This also protects the threads from weld spatter.
All nuts meet ASME B1.1 and comply with specifications for dimensional standards.
Square Weld Nuts
Square weld nuts have more weld points than hex nuts for a stronger hold. Use them to add strong, permanent threads to uncoated steel surfaces. They stand up to more torque and pulling force than rivet nuts. These fasteners are uncoated, so they require minimal preparation before welding. All have a collar pilot that guides the nut into the hole, holds it in place while welding, and protects the threads from weld spatter.
Nuts that meet ASME B1.1 comply with specifications for dimensional standards.

Aligning Weld Nuts
Threads float inside the retainer so you can install a bolt at a slight angle to align with off-center parts. Weld these nuts to metal surfaces for a strong, permanent hold. They stand up to high torque and pulling force better than rivet nuts.
For the strongest threads, choose steel nuts. Nuts with a steel retainer should be welded to uncoated steel surfaces.
