Hobson NL08ZCM05 M5 Thin Hex Nut, Class 8, Zinc Plated

A thin hex nut is a low-height version of the hex nut. It is often fitted as a second nut to lock a standard nut in place, or where there is less room for a full-height nut. This page lists 10 Hobson metric thin hex nuts (metric thread, Class 8, zinc plated finish): M5 to M36.

The supplier names these nuts Class 8. 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.

The pack, box or bag quantity for each size is shown in the table.

Common specifications

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. A thin nut is lower than a standard hex nut, so check the height your joint allows. 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.
