An Overview of Hex Slotted Nuts



We are a Supplier of Hex Slotted Nuts, in various countries. These are used in applications where vibration or torque might unfasten the assembly. Hex Slotted Nuts are similar to castle nuts but mainly have a lower profile than a castle nut of the same size. These are also preferred as castle nuts due to their lower profiles. Slotted Hex Nuts except the slots are cut into cylindrical portions that are equal in length to the slot depth and slightly smaller in diameter than the hex width. Castle nuts are the same dimensionally but have more curved slots cut in the top.

If you are looking for reliable suppliers of hex slotted nuts, we are ready to serve your all kinds of needs. We have hex slotted nuts in custom as well as non-custom sizes. DIC Slotted Nuts are available in a range of strength grade property classes, both in heat-treated and non-heat treated conditions. These are also used to secure a safety wire or cotter pin to a fastener with a drilled hole. 

Maintenance

  • Check the fastener assembly to ensure the cotter pin is in place
  • When removing the nut, bend or cut the cotter pin so it can be removed
  • When re-installing, use a New cotter pin
