Screws and nuts are common in daily life. There are many kinds of nuts, such as square nuts, round nuts, ring nuts, butterfly nuts, hexagon nuts, etc. The most common is hexagon nut, so why is hexagon nut the most common? What is the importance?

1. The nut is made into hexagon to make it more convenient to use. On the machine, the place where the nut is installed is sometimes not enough, and the wrench space for the nut is also very narrow. At this time, if the hexagon nut is used, we only need to turn a wrench 60 degrees at a time to slowly tighten the nut, while the hexagon nut needs to be turned 90 degrees at a time. That is to say, in the space required to tighten the nut, the hexagon is small, but because the contact surface between the wrench and the octagon nut is small and easy to slide, the octagon nut is rarely used. Therefore, hexagon nut is the most convenient and practical. Then look at the wrench. The wrench handle and the wrench can form an angle of 30 degrees, so when the position is very narrow during the installation of the nut and the wrench cannot move freely, the hexagon nut can be tightened by pulling the wrench once, turning the wrench over and adjusting the nut again.

Secondly, in order to make full use of materials, nuts are hexagonal. Because from the strength point of view, the big nut must be stronger than the small nut. In the past, a nut was generally milled from a round material. The same round bar used to make a hexagon nut is more efficient than making a hexagon fixed nut, and the hexagon nut made from a variety of round bars of different thickness is far more appropriate than the hexagon nut.

In short, hexagon nuts are easy to use and can improve the utilization rate of materials, so they are favored by users.

The above question is why it is important to use hexagon nuts frequently. I hope it can give you an important reference when using hexagon bolts.
