Metric Steel Hex Weld Nuts
The three weld points on these metric hex nuts create a secure hold on a steel surface. Weld them to sheet metal or thick steel surfaces to add strong, permanent threads. They stand up to high torque and pull force better than rivet nuts. Made of uncoated steel, there’s minimal prep required to weld them to uncoated steel surfaces. 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.

Steel Screw-Locking Hex Weld Nuts
Irregularly shaped threads in these nuts form a tight grip, preventing screws from backing out in vibration-heavy environments. These weld nuts stand up to high torque and pull force better than rivet and press-fit nuts, making them the strongest way to add threads to sheet metal. They can be welded onto thick metal surfaces, too. To protect their threads from deforming, these nuts have three projections that concentrate your weld and create room for heat to dissipate. A collar pilot guides the nut into the hole, lightly holds it in place during welding, and protects threads from spatter.
These nuts are designed for use with Grade 2 or Class 6 screws. Use screws that have a similar strength rating to avoid stripping threads during installation. Screw-locking threads require high torque for fastening and unfastening, so you may need an impact wrench to remove screws.

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.

Steel Low-Profile Narrow-Base Weld Nuts
With a slim base and a short barrel, these weld nuts fit in tight spaces, such as channels, and in low-clearance areas. Weld nuts 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 onto thick pieces of metal. Made of plain steel, these nuts weld to flat, uncoated steel surfaces with minimal preparation.

Made of 18-8 stainless steel, they withstand mild chemicals and can be used in wet and outdoor environments. These weld nuts 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 and other flat, thin metal surfaces.

Metric Steel Narrow-Base Weld Nuts
Install metric threads in channels and other tight spaces where round-base weld nuts won’t fit. These steel weld nuts 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. They can also be welded onto thick metal and molded into plastic surfaces. In plastic, their rectangular shape keeps them from twisting.
A base that’s flat on both sides allows these nuts to be welded in two orientations: either flush on a flat surface or with the barrel sticking through a hole. Twice as long as those on low-profile weld nuts, the standard-length barrel creates greater thread engagement.
Plain steel nuts can be welded to uncoated steel with less prep than zinc-plated steel nuts.
Zinc-plated steel nuts resist rusting in wet environments better than plain steel nuts. Weld them to uncoated steel surfaces, but keep in mind this will take extra prep, such as grinding off some of the zinc plating.

Stainless Steel Narrow-Base Weld Nuts
Slim at the base, these weld nuts fit in channels and other spaces too tight for round-base weld nuts. Weld them to stainless steel surfaces to add strong, permanent threads that resist corroding from chemicals. With a barrel that’s twice as long as low-profile narrow-base weld nuts, more threads engage the fastener for a strong hold. Their base is smooth on both sides, allowing you to weld them either flush to a surface or with the barrel through a hole. Compared to rivet nuts, they stand up to higher torque and pull force.

Steel Offset-Barrel Narrow-Base Weld Nuts
An offset barrel allows you to position threads near edges and corners. Use these nuts to add strong, permanent threads to uncoated steel sheet metal or thick uncoated steel surfaces. With a narrow base, they fit in channels and other tight spaces where round-base nuts do not. They have a short barrel, so they fit in low-clearance areas, too. They stand up to more torque and pull force than rivet nuts.
Uncoated steel weld nuts require minimal preparation before welding.
Zinc-plated steel weld nuts resist corrosion in wet environments. They require some preparation before welding, such as grinding off the plating from the part of the nut you intend to weld.

Metric Steel Round-Base Weld Nuts
A smooth base provides more contact with the mating surface than weld nuts with projections. Both sides of the base are flat, so these metric weld nuts can be welded flush to a surface or with the barrel through the hole. Use them to add strong, permanent threads to uncoated steel surfaces. Their barrel is twice as long as low-profile weld nuts for added thread engagement. Because they’re welded on, they can stand up to more torque and pull force than rivet nuts.
Uncoated steel weld nuts can be welded on with minimal preparation.
Zinc-plated steel weld nuts are corrosion resistant in wet environments. They require some preparation before welding, such as grinding off the plating from the part of the nut you intend to weld.

Stainless Steel Low-Profile Round-Base Weld Nuts with Projections
Add corrosion-resistant threads to stainless steel sheets, even in spaces with low clearance. These nuts have a short collar to fit in confined spaces. To make welding easier, their collar pilot guides them into the hole and aligns them with the surface. It also shields the threads from weld spatter. The round base acts as a flange to evenly distribute force, while the projections concentrate your weld. This makes room for heat to dissipate, protecting the threads from deforming. These weld nuts 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 weld them to thick metal surfaces.

Stainless Steel Adhesive-Ready Nuts
Add strong threads to material that’s too difficult to drill or too thin to grip a threaded insert. These nuts are ideal for brittle plastics or tough composites, such as acrylic or carbon fiber. They have large holes in the base so that adhesive or resin can flow through, spread out, and create an extra-strong hold. You can also mold them into the surface of your material. Made of 316 stainless steel, they resist corrosion from salt water and harsh chemicals.
The base of these nuts acts like a flange, distributing pressure evenly across the mounting surface. The larger the base, the more that pressure is spread out; the smaller the base, the tighter the space these nuts can fit into. Taller nuts engage more of a screw’s threads than shorter nuts. Shorter nuts fit in low-clearance areas.

Stainless Steel Narrow-Base Adhesive-Ready Nuts
Add corrosion-resistant threads to channels, corners, and other tight spaces without drilling a hole. Glue these nuts on to thin surfaces and materials too hard and brittle to drill, such as acrylic and carbon fiber. Large holes in the base allow adhesive and resin to flow and spread along the joint for a good bond. You can mold them into plastics or composites. Made of 316 stainless steel, these nuts are excellent at resisting chemicals and salt water.
The base of these nuts acts like a flange, distributing pressure evenly across the mounting surface. Larger bases spread the pressure over more surface for a strong bond, while smaller bases fit better in tight spaces.

Stainless Steel Closed-End Adhesive-Ready Nuts
Adhere or mold these nuts onto a surface without gunking up the threads—the closed end blocks out adhesive, resin, and debris. It also acts as a stop, preventing screws from penetrating your material. Use them to add strong threads to material that’s too difficult and brittle to drill, such as acrylic and carbon fiber. They’re also often used when the surface is too thin to grip a threaded insert. To create a secure bond, large holes in the base let adhesive and resin flow and spread along the joint.
