The term flange nut refers to a threaded fastener that has a large flat flange on one end which serves as an integrally fixed washer. This acts to evenly distribute the force of the nut onto the other portion being attached, thereby reducing the likelihood of damage being caused to the adjacent part and making it more likely to remain tightened due to an even top surface. They are often used in applications where the diameter of the hole required to hold a bolt is greater than the diameter of the washer or flange. This results in the use of specially made equipment to help fasten bolts where the diameter of the hole exceeds the diameter of the washer or flange. Flange nuts are commonly seen in applications where the diameter of the hole is greater than eight inches and are used with nuts and bolts sized up to nine inches in diameter.

Flange nuts are used not only for their ability to help secure bolts and nuts into a surface, but also for their ability to help prevent damage from occurring to machinery or equipment. The washer acts as a very strong seal and prevents any leaks from occurring within the working chamber. They have a very deep seat, which is able to resist high pressures within the working chamber.

Flange nuts have a locking mechanism which is able to stop bolts or nuts from loosening when they are released. It is possible to place them onto a washer so that they can then be locked into place. In this way a safety measure is provided which protects the users hands by ensuring that they cannot be pierced by the bolt when it is being released. They are also useful for securing a variety of other objects onto a washer such as cables which are often needed to attach heavy pieces of machinery to their base.

There are many different styles of flange nut available on the market. These include those which are called flat and round. A flat flange nut will be one that is straight. Some nuts will be able to be inserted into a flange that is oval shaped. This type can work in a variety of different ways depending upon the applications that they need to be used for.

A round flange nut will be one which has a slightly rounded surface on its surface. This will be able to work in conjunction with other types of flange options to help ensure that the nuts are able to be seated securely in the working chamber. The round flange may be able to be threaded so that it is possible to place it onto a bolt which has been stripped so that the bolt will be able to be locked into its proper place.

These are some of the ways that a flange nut will be used. They are also some of the considerations that should be used in the choosing of a specific flange. It helps to see that the flange fits securely into the workpiece. It also helps to see that the flange is able to remain level as it is turned so that it will not be possible for the bolts to come out of their holes. The design of a flange that fits properly will help to ensure that it will not be a hazard when it is used in the right way.
