Projection Hex Weld Nuts

Plain Steel Hex Weld Nuts with Projections

Hex weld nuts are used for attaching a threaded hole to parts that can only be accessed from one side. These nuts are welded on to the parent material and then used with screws and bolts to mechanically join materials together. They are frequently used in the automotive industry as they allow thinner materials to be used that would normally be too thin to tap. Perfect for restoration projects.

Projection weld nuts are resistant to the twisting and snapping from high torque applications. The projections on weld nuts melt into the host material during welding for a quick and enduring hold while the pilot helps to both ensure a precise installation and protects the threading from welding spatter during welding operations.

Hex Weld Nuts are available in plain steel with either a short or long pilot and either 3 projections or 6 projections.
