Thin (Jam, Reduced Height) Hex Nuts

These standards from ANSI, ASME, ISO, SAE, and others address the materials, construction, and requirements for hex nuts for a variety of applications. This list addresses thin Hex Nuts.

ASME B18.2.4.5M-2008

Metric Hex Jam Nuts

This Standard covers the complete general and dimensional data for metric hex jam nuts recognized as American National Standard. The inclusion of dimensional data in this Standard is not intended to imply that all of the nut sizes in conjunction with the various options described herein are stock items. Consumers should consult with suppliers concerning lists of stock production hex jam nuts.

Fasteners - Prevailing torque hexagon nuts - Thin nuts (with non-metallic insert)

This document specifies the characteristics of prevailing torque hexagon thin nuts (with non metallic insert), in steel and stainless steel, with metric coarse pitch thread M3 to M39, and with product grades A and B. NOTE These nuts are designed with an overall height equal to m min (as specified in ISO 898-2 and ISO 4035 for style 0) plus the prevailing torque feature. The height of the prevailing torque feature ( h max – m min ) for the non-metallic insert is identical for regular, high and thin nuts for a given diameter. Nuts with sizes D M5 and design principles in accordance with style 0 are specified in Annex A. WARNING — Thin nuts (style 0) have a reduced loadability compared to regular or high nuts, they are not designed to provide resistance to thread stripping (see ISO 898-2). If in certain cases other specifications are requested, stainless steel grades and property classes can be selected from ISO 3506-2.

Fasteners - Hexagon thin nuts (style 0)

This document specifies the characteristics of hexagon thin nuts (style 0), in steel and stainless steel, with metric coarse pitch thread M1,6 to M64, and with product grades A and B. Thin nuts used as jam nuts are to be assembled together with a regular or high nut. WARNING — Thin nuts (style 0) have a reduced loadability compared to regular nuts or high nuts, and are not designed to provide resistance to thread stripping (see ISO 898 - 2 ). If in certain cases other specifications are requested, stainless steel grades and property classes can be selected from ISO 3506 - 2 .

ISO 4036:2012

ISO 4036:2012 specifies the characteristics of unchamfered hexagon thin nuts (style 0), with threads from M1,6 up to and including M10 and product grade B.

ISO 8675:2023

Fasteners - Hexagon thin nuts (style 0), with fine pitch thread

This document specifies the characteristics of hexagon thin nuts (style 0), in steel and stainless steel, with metric fine pitch thread 8 mm to 64 mm, and with product grades A and B. Thin nuts used as jam nuts are to be assembled together with a regular or high nut. WARNING — Thin nuts (style 0) have a reduced loadability compared to regular nuts or high nuts, and are not designed to provide resistance to thread stripping (see ISO 898 - 2 ). If in certain cases other specifications are requested, stainless steel grades and property classes can be selected from ISO 3506 - 2 .
