Nuts

The right nut for every connection

Fastenrath offers a wide range of weld nuts, flange nuts, lock nuts, hex nuts, square nuts, and cap nuts made of steel, stainless steel, or non-ferrous metals—available in virtually all thread types and sizes, as well as various surface coatings. We are also happy to manufacture custom nuts for you, such as combination nuts, press-fit nuts, rivet nuts, flanged nuts, round nuts, and rectangular nuts.

We produce approximately 1.1 billion nuts per year—that’s about 5 million nuts per day—which are installed in, among other things, the bodies, chassis, and engines of numerous passenger cars, trucks, two-wheelers, and agricultural and forestry machinery. Our nuts can also be found in everyday household items, such as washing machines and dishwashers, as well as other household and gardening appliances.

Weld nuts

In order to ensure your complete satisfaction, we supply our weld nuts in a wide range of variants, always delivering consistently high quality.

Although weld nuts generally operate according to the same principle, there are significant differences in terms of ease of processing and strength.

Our products offer numerous advantages. They ensure reliable feedability and weldability in production processes and, if required, feature a centring spigot for self-positioning and protection from weld spatter.

In the weld nut segment, we manufacture:

• Square weld nuts DIN 928
• Hex weld nuts DIN 929
• Hex flange weld nuts DIN EN ISO 21670
• Round weld nuts
• Special designs to customer specifications

Flange nuts
Use our flange nuts to cover slotted holes in automotive, mechanical engineering and equipment applications. They comply with numerous standards and meet the highest requirements. They are particularly suitable for reducing surface pressure on soft, thin mating surfaces, for covering large holes or as a replacement for nuts used with additional washers.

In the flange nut segment, we manufacture the following:

  • Flange nut DIN EN 1661
  • Flange nut DIN EN 14218

Press-in nuts

Use our press-in nuts to create reliable connections without the need for additional welding processes. The nuts are extremely easy to install, with no risk of structural changes in the material caused by heat exposure during welding, for example. They also withstand high levels of torque and pull-out forces and are available for a range of sheet thicknesses, as well as offering a high level of safety even in very compact designs.

Thanks to these properties, our products are used wherever durable and reliable connections in sheet metal are required, for example in the manufacture of vehicle components and other sheet metal parts. Closed press-in nuts also prevent the ingress of dirt and water.

  • Hex press-in nuts FN 1.225

Lock nuts

Avoid unpleasant surprises when it comes to safety. Standard nuts can loosen or even come off completely due to external influences such as continuous vibration. Lock nuts have been developed to counter this.

They are a reliable locking solution against unintentional loosening and loss – without the need for additional components or any modification to the bolt itself. Applications for our lock nuts include exhaust systems, chassis components and engine parts.

Square nuts

Rely on the tradition and proven quality of our square nuts. They are the product our company has successfully manufactured and distributed ever since its founding over 100 years ago. Square nuts have a key role to play in fastening technology. They are used across a wide range of industries in profiles, guide rails and rail systems.

In lorries and passenger cars they secure front-end and door modules as well as decorative boot rails. Square nuts are also used to fasten mounting rails in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, the solar industry, automotive engineering, sanitary systems and exhibition construction.
