This flanged hex nut from RS PRO does the job of a regular nut and a washer combined. The flange distributes pressure evenly over the part it's securing, holding it securely in place and ensuring it doesn't get damaged by movement.
The nut is forged from Grade-8 carbon-alloy steel, giving it high torque strength for a durable product. It's also plated in bright zinc plated to resist corrosion, meaning it will last for longer. The serrated face boosts the locking action of the nut and makes it suitable for use with oversized or irregularly shaped holes.
Flanged nuts of this kind are commonly found in manufacturing lines, where the use of a single fastener speeds up operations. Another common use for this type of nut is for door hinges and seat attachments in the automotive sector.
