    TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

    Nucor Fastener Finished Hex Nuts are all formed on preci-


    sion high speed nutformers, utilizing in-process quality systems
    and have full traceability from raw material to each container of
    nuts we ship. Grade 5 Nuts achieve their strength through cold
    forming, while Grade 8 Nuts are heat treated to provide a greater
    level of strength. Nucor Finished Hex Nuts are 100% Made in the
    U.S.A. from American Steel. Chemical and physical certifications
    are provided with every shipment. Nucor Fastener is TS16949 and
    ISO9001 Registered and our laboratory is A2LA Accredited.

    Mechanical Properties
    The mechanical properties of Finished Hex Nuts are covered in the Society of Automotive Engineers
    (SAE) SAE J995, “Mechanical and Material Requirements for Steel Nuts”. This specification covers the
    materials, manufacturing methods, mechanical properties and testing requirements for these nuts. See
    Tables 2 & 3 for the mechanical properties.

    Dimensions
    The dimensions for Finished Hex Nuts are covered in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
    B18.2.2, “Square and Hex Nuts-Inch Series” (See Table 1). The size of the hex is the same as a cap
    screw head to permit using the same standard wrench size. Thread dimensions are per ANSI B1.1 and
    are manufactured to either a unified national coarse (UNC) or unified national fine (UNF) Class 2B
    thread tolerance.

    Applications
    In general, the proof load of the nut should be greater than the minimum tensile strength of the bolt to
    ensure that if overloaded, the bolt breaks rather than the nut threads shearing or stripping. Grade 5
    Hex Nuts are designed to be used with Grade 5 Cap Screws and Grade 8 Nuts with Grade 8 Cap
    Screws. A stronger nut can nearly always be used with a weaker bolt (i.e., a Grade 8 Nut is accept-
    able for use on a Grade 5 Cap Screw).

    Coatings
    Finished Hex Nuts are typically purchased plain or zinc electroplated. Grade 5 Nuts typically have a
    clear trivalent chromate finish, while Grade 8 Nuts typically have a yellow chromate finish.

    Markings
    The marking requirements are covered in SAE J995 and were last modified in July 1999 to improve
    the marking requirements. The following table and figure show the marking requirements:
