Brass Nuts

Brass Hex Nuts, Thumb Nuts & Wing Nuts

What are brass nuts?

Brass nuts are designed to be used alongside a mating bolt or screw to securely fasten multiple components. The brass alloy provides several valuable performance characteristics, making these nuts suitable for demanding or specialist environments.

Why choose brass nuts?

Brass offers a combination of high thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and anti-rust performance. This makes brass nuts suitable for:

• Outdoor or coastal applications
• Marine and moisture-prone environments
• Medical and sterile equipment (due to brass’ natural anti-bacterial properties)
• Heavy duty mechanical assemblies where long service life is required

The durability of brass ensures a longer lifespan compared to many similar fasteners, particularly where ongoing adjustment or maintenance is needed.

What types and sizes are available?

We supply a wide selection of brass nut styles, including:

• Brass hex nuts (full and thin pattern)
• Brass wing nuts
• Knurled brass nuts

Sizes range across common metric specifications, including M4, M6, M8 and M10 brass nuts, with smaller and larger diameters available in both coarse and fine pitch options. Some imperial thread nuts can also be supplied.

Need a custom brass nut?

Non-standard sizes, specialist grades, and bespoke finishes can be manufactured to order from drawings or specifications, with short lead times. Minimum order quantities apply.
