Rope and Clip Solutions for Outdoor Adventures and DIY Projects
A hex nut, also known as a hexagon nut, is a six-sided nut designed to be used with bolts and screws to secure components in various mechanical and structural applications. The hexagonal shape of the nut provides a secure and stable connection, making it suitable for applications requiring high tensile strength and resistance to loosening. Hex nuts are available in a wide range of sizes and materials, providing a versatile and standardized fastening solution for a variety of projects.
The no-square carriage bolt eliminates the square section while retaining other key attributes, such as the rounded head and smooth shaft. This design can be beneficial in certain situations—especially where the material being fastened does not have a pre-existing square hole or when the bolt is used in applications where rotational movement is not a significant concern.
