Square Weld Nuts

Description

Square Weld Nuts have a four sided square body with 4 projections at each corner of the square. Consequently, they have a stronger hold than Hex Weld Nuts.

• Size Range: M4 to M12
  Materials – Carbon Steel; Stainless Steel AISI-304/ AISI-316

Characteristics of Square Weld Nuts

Square weld nuts have several distinguishing features that make them highly effective in industrial applications:

1. Square Shape – The four-sided design provides a larger welding surface, improving stability and preventing rotation when tightening bolts.
2. Projection Points or Tabs – Many square weld nuts have small protrusions that help create strong fusion with the base metal when welded. These projections ensure even and consistent bonding.
3. Threaded Interior – The internal threading allows for secure engagement with bolts, ensuring durability and a reusable fastening system.
4. Flange or Base Surface – Some square weld nuts come with a flange or extended base to increase load distribution and strength.
5. Material Composition – Typically made from carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel, depending on the required strength and corrosion resistance.

Types of Square Weld Nuts

Different types of square weld nuts are available to suit various applications and welding techniques:

1. Standard Square Weld Nuts – Basic square nuts with projection points for easy welding and high strength.
2. Flanged Square Weld Nuts – Feature an integrated flange to increase surface contact and load distribution.
3. Pilot Square Weld Nuts – Have an extended pilot section that aids in precise alignment and positioning before welding.
4. Self-Locating Square Weld Nuts – Designed with special features to ensure accurate placement without additional alignment tools.
