Left Hand Thread Finished Hex Nuts at Empire Bolt & Screw

Finished hex nuts are easily the most prevalent style of nut in the world.  They are found in virtually every industrial, structural, construction, or machinery application.  They are designed to pair with bolts, screws, studs, or some other externally threaded component. The internal threads of the Finished Hex Nut mate with the external threads of the bolt, creating friction between the opposing threads and tension in the externally threaded component, thereby introducing clamping force between the fastening units.  For this reason, it is a solid union with substantial holding force. 
Left Hand Nuts are utilized in applications where there may be a counterclockwise torque or vibrational force present that could potentially unscrew a right-hand threaded fastener component.
