Hobson NH05GCM12 M12 Hex Nut, Class 5, Galvanised

A hex nut is the standard six-sided nut. It is turned with a spanner or socket onto a bolt, stud or threaded rod of the same thread form, diameter and pitch. This page lists one Hobson metric hex nut (metric thread, Class 5, galvanised finish): M12.

The supplier names these nuts Class 5. The Hobson strength tables cover bolts, not nuts, so no strength figures are published for these nuts.

Pitch is the coarse pitch for each diameter from the Hobson thread table (manufacturer-stated). The supplier descriptions do not state a pitch.

Key specifications

Selecting the right option

Match the nut to the bolt, stud or rod: thread form, diameter and pitch must all agree. Sizes are the nominal thread diameter in millimetres; compare the pitch with your bolt. Choose the class or grade to suit the bolt you are fastening, and confirm the pairing with your specification if the joint is load-critical.
