Nuts are an essential fastener, working tirelessly alongside their bolt counterpart, that no toolbox should be without. Here at Travis Perkins, we understand the importance of having the right nut for the job. That's why we offer a wide variety of sizes to meet all your project needs. Hex nuts are used for many everyday applications and are gauged using the letter M, indicating the diameter in millimetres. No matter what your project throws your way, we have the nut to keep things together securely.
These screws consist of an threaded cylindrical shaft that tapers to a point, with a Hex head at the other end. When these are driven into timber, the threads bite into the wood, while the head stops the screw from going all the way through as it provides compression.
This bolt has a square shoulder under a rounded head (Mushroom Head) which resists turning when the nut is tightened or removed. The bolt is driven into a hole the same size as the shank and then hammered the rest of the way, where the square shoulder locks firmly into place.
