HEXAGONAL INSERT NUT

HEXAGONAL INSERT NUT  (STEEL)

Hexagonal fastening element that provides a great resistance to rotation and extraction. It has been especially designed for the most demanding applications.

DescripTION

The Bralo Hexagonal Insert Nut is a mechanical fastening element providing a grooving feature in those applications with a single-side access that require a very high resistance to rotation. It is ideal for applications with thin metal sheets, tubes, extrusion or plastics.

It offers an exceptional mechanical resistance. Compared to the round body insert nuts, the hexagonal shape of the section and the inner hole substantially increases the resistance to rotation and extraction in thin sheets.
The result is a homogeneous riveting that ensures a solid and high quality joint.

HEXAGONAL INSERT NUT

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• The hexagonal shape of the section and the inner hole doubles the resistance to rotation in thin sheets, compared to the insert nuts with round body
• Excellent solution to obtain a grooving feature in items with reduced thickness (0.5mm)
•  Single-sided access (blind insert nut)
• It offers an exceptional mechanical resistance that prevents rotation.
• Versatility. They function both as an insert nut and a joint rivet..
• It resists usual unscrewing.
• The surface does not suffer from heat stress nor deformations.
• It is available in different finishes that improve its resistance to corrosion.
• Available in large and in reduced head
• Its installation can be incorporated at any stage of production.
• Fast and high precision assembly.
• It requires simple and ergonomic tools, that can be pneumatic, automatic or hand tools.
• The riveting process is environmentally friendly, free of smoke, sparks, fumes, etc.

Technical Characteristics

Materials: Steel.

Diameters: M-4, M-5, M6, M-8, M-10, M-12 

Heads: Large and reduced heads.

	Large Head It provides a big bearing area that strengthens the hole and prevents traction or pulling failures. It can also be used as a separator.
	Reduced Head It offers the possibility of creating a virtual flat surface without the need of a drilling machine.

End: Open and closed

Types of design

• NYPLAS

  Under request, this large head hexagonal insert nut is available with a PVC sealing under the head. This ring provides a bigger sealing that absorbs vibrations and increases the item resistance to temperature variations.

• STEEL EXTRA REDUCED HEXAGONAL INSERT NUT

  The extra reduced hexagonal insert nut is made of steel. Its head has an extra thin lip that allows installation with an almost flat finish, joining two or more sheets.

Finishes

One of Bralo’s commitments are to find ways to exceed all our customers needs. To avoid the effects of external agents, we offer the widest range of finishes and protective coatings for insert nuts in the market.

Bralo Hexagonal Insert Nut is available in a galvanic zincating. This zinc coating protects steel from rust and corrosion, improving the visual aspect of the item at the same time.

Depending on the required strength in each application, there are various available zincating options: the galvanic one, where the zinc is the only metal that forms the suffering layer and the nickel zincating, with a resistance twice as high as that of the normal zincating, making it suitable for automotive and weather resistant applications. The latter is also available in a transparent, shiny look that can be silver or black.
