TIMco Hex Full Nuts - M8 - Silver

These M8 Hex Full Nuts are designed for general-purpose bolting and fastening applications, primarily intended for indoor use due to their zinc plating.

A 13mm socket or wrench is required to properly tighten the M8 hex nuts.

While the zinc plating offers some protection, these nuts are best suited for internal applications. For prolonged outdoor exposure, alternative corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel or galvanised nuts are recommended.

DIN 934 is a German Institute for Standardization (DIN) standard that specifies the dimensions and properties for common hex nuts, ensuring consistency and interchangeability.

Yes, provided the bolt has a standard M8 metric thread with a 1.25mm pitch, these nuts will be compatible.

For indoor use, the zinc plating provides adequate protection. If moisture is a concern, avoid prolonged contact with water and consider a light application of oil or grease for added protection.

Ensure the bolt is M8 with a 1.25mm thread pitch. Check both the bolt and nut threads for any damage or debris. Try cleaning both components before attempting to thread again.

The bolt threads may be stripped, or the nut may have been over-tightened and the threads damaged. Inspect the bolt threads. If damaged, replace the bolt. If the nut is damaged, replace the nut.

Ensure you are using the correct size socket (13mm for M8). Verify that the nut and bolt are the correct type and size for the application. Make sure the material being fastened is rigid enough to withstand the clamping force.
