Frequently asked questions

What standard governs the low hex nut?

ISO 4035 — the dimensions in the table below (nominal diameter, thread pitch and all fixed geometry) are taken directly from that standard.

Are these dimensions in millimetres?

Yes — all values are in mm, matching the metric ISO/UNI standards these components are drawn from. There are no imperial variants in this table.

Why do some sizes have a note about property class B?

Above a certain size, these nuts are commonly produced to a coarser property class (B instead of A) — wider manufacturing tolerances, still fully compliant with the standard. It only affects manufacturing tolerance, not how you use the nut.
