How to choose your nut?

Nothing could be simpler! First of all, it is essential to know the type of thread you need, as this determines the type of nut you should use. The two most common types of thread are metric thread and imperial thread. So make sure you know the type of thread of the screw to which you want to attach the nut. Nuts are available in different sizes, measured according to the diameter of the screw and the thread. It is important to choose the right size to ensure a strong and secure fastening.

Nylon 6.6

Polyamide PA 6.6 (commercial name "nylon"). Nylon 6.6 is 7 times lighter than steel, making it a wise choice for reducing weight or mass. It also has high thermal, mechanical, and chemical resistance, as well as excellent electrical insulation properties. Additionally, it can be easily recycled for chemical reuse or energy recovery. Finally, it is non-oxidising, resistant to fresh water, seawater, and salt mist, which significantly reduces the risk of corrosion and seizing. Its maximum continuous use temperature is 120°C and -30°C minimum. The melting point is at 255°C.

The Threads

A thread is a helical shaping operation performed on a rod, tube, nut, or in the bore of a mechanical part, in order to allow its fastening. A screw is threaded, a nut is tapped. The pitch of the screw corresponds to the relative distance travelled in translation by a screw in relation to its nut during a complete turn. For example, a screw with a pitch of 1.25 will advance by 1.25mm during the rotation of one turn for a metric pitch. The term "screw pitch" is often incorrectly used to refer to threads. For fastener products, there are a multitude of pitches: ISO (fine and coarse), American (UNC, UNF...), Gas, English (BSW), trapezoidal... At Deal Marine, we offer a range of screws and nuts with standard pitches (metric, fine) or more specific pitches such as American (UNF, UNC).
