Metric Class 8.8 Hex Flange Nut Din 6923 Clear Zinc Cr3 Plating
Metric Class 8.8 Hex Flange Locknuts – DIN 6923 Strength with Built-In Locking
The metric Class 8.8 hex flange locknut manufactured to DIN 6923 with clear zinc Cr3 plating is a high-performance, all-metal fastening solution built for strength, speed, and vibration resistance. Designed with an integrated wide flange, this locknut eliminates the need for a separate washer while evenly distributing clamp load and resisting loosening under torque and vibration.
Engineered for Mechanical and Structural Reliability
Produced from Class 8.8 medium carbon steel, these flange locknuts offer excellent tensile strength, wear resistance, and durability. The DIN 6923 specification ensures precise dimensions, consistent quality, and full compatibility with metric bolt systems—making these locknuts a trusted choice for engineers, OEMs, and maintenance professionals working to international standards.
Built-In Serrated Locking Action
The underside of the flange features serrations that bite into the mating surface, creating a mechanical locking effect that helps prevent back-off from vibration or dynamic loading. This all-metal locking design performs reliably in environments where nylon inserts may fail due to heat, oils, or repeated reuse.
Clear Zinc Cr3 Plating Benefits
Finished with clear zinc Cr3 (trivalent chromium) plating, these locknuts gain added protection against rust and oxidation while maintaining a clean, professional silver appearance. The Cr3 coating is RoHS-compliant, offering an environmentally responsible alternative to hexavalent chromium finishes. It provides dependable corrosion resistance for indoor use and moderately corrosive outdoor environments, including general construction and equipment assemblies.
