In stock
An M3 x 4 Hexagon Stainless Steel Nut is a small, six-sided (hexagonal) nut made from stainless steel. The “M3” indicates the metric thread size with a nominal diameter of 3 millimeters. The “x 4” in this context likely refers to a key dimension of the nut, but it’s crucial to understand what this “4” specifically represents. It could potentially refer to:
- Height or Thickness (less likely): While nuts have a height or thickness, it’s less common to see it explicitly stated this way in the primary description. Standard M3 nuts typically have a height around 2.4mm.
- Across Flats (less likely): This is the standard way to measure the size of a hexagon nut (the distance between two parallel flat sides). For an M3 nut, this is typically 5.5mm. So, “4” is unlikely to be this dimension.
Given the common way nuts are described, the “4” is most likely NOT a standard dimensional measurement of the nut itself. It might be part of a product code, a batch identifier, or related to a specific set or packaging that includes the nut.
However, we can describe the general characteristics of an M3 Hexagon Stainless Steel Nut:
Key Characteristics:
- Thread Size: M3 (Metric standard thread with a 3mm nominal diameter and a 0.5mm thread pitch for coarse threads).
- Shape: Hexagonal (six-sided) outer shape, providing good grip for wrenches and sockets, allowing for easy tightening and loosening.
- Material: Stainless Steel. This offers significant advantages:
- Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, making it suitable for various environments, including those with moisture or exposure to the elements. The specific grade of stainless steel (e.g., 304, 316) will determine the level of corrosion resistance.
- Durability: Stainless steel is a strong and durable material, ensuring a reliable and long-lasting connection.
- Aesthetic Appeal: It often has a clean, metallic appearance.
- Hygienic: The non-porous surface is easy to clean, making it suitable for applications where hygiene is important.
- Function: Designed to be used with M3 bolts, screws, or other externally threaded fasteners to securely join two or more components together. The internal threads of the nut mate with the external threads of the bolt.
- Standard: Often manufactured to meet specific standards like DIN 934 (the most common standard for metric hexagon nuts). These standards define the dimensions, tolerances, and material properties.
Typical Dimensions (for a standard M3 Hex Nut – if the “4” is not a dimensional aspect):
- Width Across Flats (WAF): Typically 5.5 mm
- Thickness (Height): Typically around 2.4 mm
- Thread Pitch: 0.5 mm (for standard coarse thread)
Applications:
Hexagon nuts are one of the most common types of fasteners and are used in a wide array of applications across various industries, including:
- Construction: Fastening structural components, steel beams, etc.
- Automotive: Engine assembly, suspension systems, bodywork.
- Machinery and Equipment: Securing components in industrial and manufacturing equipment.
- Electronics: Assembling electronic devices and enclosures.
- Furniture: Joining parts in various types of furniture.
- DIY and Home Improvement: Countless uses in household repairs and projects.
- Marine: Stainless steel nuts are particularly useful in marine environments due to their corrosion resistance.
To get a precise understanding of what the “4” in “M3 x 4 Hexagon Stainless Steel Nut” refers to, it would be necessary to consult the specific product datasheet or supplier information. It might indicate a specific length of the thread, a non-standard height, or be an internal product code. However, the “M3 Hexagon Stainless Steel Nut” part clearly defines the core characteristics of the fastener.
