Metric Jam Nuts

A metric hex jam nut offers many benefits due to its thinner body or shortened height. They are often used as a secondary nut to ensure a standard hex nut is secured in place and will not loosen from vibrations; they ‘lock’ the hex nut in place for projects that require stability. The compact design allows them to fit in areas that can’t accommodate a second standard hex nut.
Metric hex jam nuts are a common and inexpensive component that provides extra security to an assembly. This in turn can reduce maintenance and repair costs, keeping the bolts secured in difficult environments. Consider any outside factors when selecting the best metric hex jam nut, if plating is required to protect against corrosion resistance.
