The type 2 hexagon nut has a thicker profile and thicker threads, and it provides a high-strength grip. It also resists corrosion from seawater. Some models also have a zigzag base for a higher grip.
The type 2 hexagon nut has a thick body to prevent falling off at high torque, and the hexagonal appearance prevents the nut from slipping when tightened. Through the surface treatment of hot-dip galvanizing, the nut can be more rust-proof and adapt to the outdoor situation. It is commonly used to secure steel beams and factory equipment.
In the automotive industry, the type 2 hexagon nut is used to secure parts in engines that are prone to vibration. For example, the bracket and transmission parts, when the engine is running unstable, it can keep all parts tight; It also holds suspension components such as shock absorbers in place to withstand the pressure of bumpy roads.
The type 2 hexagon nut understands steel beams and building structures. It is also used in industrial conveyor belts, excavators and other heavy machinery. Some furniture manufacturers will also use it to make strong parts so that the furniture can withstand strong weight without shaking.
When installing, choose a wrench that exactly matches the Type 2 Hexagon nut, thus avoiding nut edge wear. Clean the nut to avoid dirt or rust, align the nut with the screw thread of the bolt, and then slowly tighten it, tighten it by hand, and then tighten it again with a wrench, be careful not to use too much force, otherwise it will damage the nut.
