Flange Nuts (Box of 100)

Flange nuts are a type of nut that have a wide flange at one end, which acts like a built-in washer. This flange helps to distribute the pressure of the nut over the surface of the material being secured, reducing the chance of damage to the material. Flange nuts are often used in applications where a regular nut would not be able to provide a secure hold, such as when working with thin materials or when the material is too soft to hold a regular nut. Flange nuts are available in a variety of sizes and materials, making them a versatile and reliable fastening option.

Flange Nuts (box of 100) have a washer-like base, flange nuts distribute pressure over a greater area and ensure that they stay tight.

With a wide flange at one end, this nut acts as an integrated washer.  Thus, the nut is distributed evenly over the secured part, reducing the risk of damage and making it less likely to loosen due to uneven surfaces.

Standard washers tend to be softer than the nuts and bolts, making them prone to deforming under high compressive loads. Flange-headed nuts and bolts do not suffer from this effect since the washer face is as strong as the bolt/nut itself.
