The single chamfered hexagon foundation nuts feature beveled edges, which can guide the bolts to be positioned smoothly and prevent them from getting stuck. They are installed on Bridges, railway tracks or construction equipment. When used in conjunction with anchor bolts.
The single chamfered hexagon foundation nuts mainly serve the functions of connection and fixation. For instance, when installing large-scale mechanical equipment, they are used to fix the main body of the equipment to the foundation or base. Also in the petrochemical industry, the fixation of those large storage tanks and reactors, the single-sided chamfered hexagonal base nuts are used to prevent the displacement of the equipment during operation.
In the construction industry, single-sided chamfered hexagonal base nuts are often used when laying foundations. When building houses or Bridges, it is used to fix steel bars and embedded parts. They can firmly connect these key components together, making the foundation more stable. Like in the wind power generation industry, the installation of the base of wind turbine units also requires single chamfered hex foundation nuts, which can firmly fix the tower and the foundation.
When installing the single chamfered hexagon foundation nuts, first pass the bolts through the components that need to be fixed and align them with the reserved holes. Then screw the nut on. First, roughly tighten it by hand to ensure that the nut and the bolt are engaged. Then, use a wrench to tighten it step by step in the diagonal order so that the force is evenly distributed. Finally, use a torque wrench to check the tightening force to ensure it reaches the specified torque value and prevent the nut from loosening later.
