Why Choose DIN6334 Zinc Plated Metric Coupling Nuts?
Our DIN6334 zinc plated metric coupling nuts at AlbanyCountyFasteners.com are long nuts used to connect threaded rods or other male-threaded fasteners of the same metric thread size, ideal for extending rod assemblies in metric-based applications. Also known as zinc plated metric hex coupling nuts, these nuts are made from CR+3 Class 6 low carbon steel with an electroplated zinc coating, providing moderate corrosion resistance for indoor or sheltered outdoor settings. The hexagonal shape ensures easy installation with a standard metric wrench, allowing secure tightening or extension of rod assemblies. Available in metric sizes like M6-1.0, M8-1.25, M10-1.5, M12-1.75, M16-2.0, M20-2.5, M24-3.0, and M30-3.5, they meet DIN6334, IFI-128, REACH, and RoHS standards and are perfect for construction, machinery, and plumbing projects.
- Metric Precision: Connects same-sized metric threaded rods for seamless assemblies.
- Moderate Corrosion Resistance: Zinc plating protects against rust in sheltered settings.
- Easy Installation: Hex shape ensures secure tightening with a metric wrench.
- High Standards: DIN6334 compliance for reliable performance.
Applications for DIN6334 Zinc Plated Metric Coupling Nuts
Zinc plated metric hex coupling nuts are designed for projects requiring the connection of metric threaded rods or pipes with identical thread diameters. Their versatility makes them suitable for:
- Construction and structural rod assemblies
- Machinery and equipment with metric fasteners
- Plumbing and HVAC installations
- General hardware and DIY metric rod connections
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
DIN6334 zinc plated metric coupling nuts are hex-shaped, long nuts made from zinc-plated steel, designed to connect two male-threaded rods or fasteners with the same metric thread size, extending or tightening rod assemblies.
How do DIN6334 zinc plated metric coupling nuts differ from standard coupling nuts?DIN6334 zinc plated metric coupling nuts use metric threading for international applications, while standard coupling nuts typically use imperial threading for US-based projects.
Are DIN6334 zinc plated metric coupling nuts suitable for outdoor use?These nuts offer moderate corrosion resistance for sheltered outdoor settings. For marine or highly corrosive environments, use A4/316 stainless steel coupling nuts for enhanced durability.
What tools are needed to install DIN6334 zinc plated metric coupling nuts?Use a standard metric wrench compatible with the nut’s hex size. Thread the rods into each end and tighten to secure the connection.
How do I choose the right size DIN6334 zinc plated metric coupling nut?Select based on the thread size and pitch of the rods, such as M6-1.0, M8-1.25, M10-1.5, or M12-1.75. Ensure the nut’s thread matches the rods. Check sizing charts or consult our team for guidance.
