Key specifications

Choosing the right option

Match the nut to the bolt, stud or rod: thread form, diameter and pitch must all agree. Match both the diameter and the threads per inch of your Acme rod or screw. A left-hand nut needs a left-hand bolt or rod. If the joint is load-critical, confirm the nut and bolt pairing with your specification.
