[0002] Flange nuts, also known as washer nuts, toothed nuts, hexagonal flange nuts, flange nuts, etc., are mostly used in pipe connections or workpieces that need to increase the contact surface of the nut. The size and thread specifications of flange nuts are basically the same as those of general hexagonal nuts, but compared with hexagonal nuts, the gasket and nut are integrated, which increases the surface area contact between the nut and the workpiece. Compared with the combination of ordinary nuts and washers, flange nuts are more secure and have greater tensile strength.
