Product Overview
The High-Strength Nut is a critical structural fastener engineered to match the performance of high-tensile bolts and studs in demanding applications. Manufactured from medium carbon or alloy steel, then quenched and tempered, it achieves superior mechanical properties—including high proof load, tensile strength, and hardness—to prevent stripping, thread deformation, and premature failure under extreme static and dynamic loads. These nuts are essential for safety-critical bolted joints in construction, heavy machinery, wind energy, and transportation infrastructure.
Key Features & Benefits
Exceptional Load-Bearing Capacity: Designed to develop the full strength of matching high-strength bolts (e.g., Grade 8.8, 10.9, 12.9), ensuring the joint fails in the bolt rather than the nut.
Reliable Performance in Severe Conditions: Maintains clamp force under vibration, impact, and high stress, preventing joint loosening.
Enhanced Safety Margin: The quenched and tempered heat treatment provides a uniform microstructure, offering high resistance to brittle fracture and fatigue.
Dimensional Consistency: Precision-formed threads ensure accurate pitch and lead, facilitating smooth engagement and optimal load distribution across all threads.
Material & Process Integrity: Manufactured with full traceability from certified raw material to final heat treatment, guaranteeing consistent property class.

| Electro-Zinc Plated (Blue/Yellow/Trivalent) | ASTM B633 | 72 – 120 hours to white rust | General corrosion protection for indoor/controlled environments. |
| Hot-Dip Galvanized (HDG) | ASTM A153 / ISO 10684 | Long-term (variable) | Standard for outdoor structures. Thick, sacrificial coating for severe atmospheric corrosion. |
| Zinc Flake Coating (Geomet®, Delta Protekt®) | Proprietary / ISO 10683 | 500 – 1000+ hours | High-Performance. Superior corrosion resistance, excellent friction control, RoHS compliant. Used in automotive and offshore. |
| Mechanical Galvanizing | ASTM B695 | Good (thicker than electro-zinc) | Provides uniform coating without risk of hydrogen embrittlement. |
| Black Oxide/Phosphate & Oil | MIL-DTL-13924 | Minimal | Mainly for appearance, break-in lubrication, and mild indoor protection. |
Quality Assurance & Traceability
Manufacturing Standards: Production is governed by a certified ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System, with additional compliance to IATF 16949 for automotive and EN 14399 for preloaded structural systems (HSFG).
Rigorous Testing: Each batch undergoes mandatory hardness testing, proof load testing (per ISO 898-2 or ASTM A563), and dimensional verification. For higher classes, wedge load testing is performed.
Full Documentation: We provide full material traceability with Mill Test Certificates (MTC) and Certificates of Compliance (CoC) that include chemical analysis, mechanical test results, and heat treatment batch records. Products are marked with the property class identifier for easy identification.
