M10 Hex Lock Nut Flanged - Stainless | AIMS Industrial

The Bumax 8.8 Stainless Steel High Tensile Hex Lock Nut (Flanged) is a premium Bumax 88 austenitic stainless flanged lock nut combining an integral bearing flange with superior corrosion resistance and low magnetic permeability for precise clamping load distribution in critical fastening applications.

Chemical and Process Industries

• Small-bore pump, valve and instrument connections in chemical service requiring flanged bearing surface and superior corrosion resistance
• Chemical handling equipment requiring non-corroding, high-strength fasteners at M6 to M10
• Aggressive acid and alkali environments where standard A4 pitting resistance falls short

Food Processing and Pharmaceutical

• Hygienic equipment fastening where the flanged face distributes load without damaging contact surfaces
• Dairy and pharmaceutical processing plant where CIP cleanability and corrosion resistance are both needed
• Packaging and filling equipment with small fastener sizes and hygiene-rated stainless requirements

Marine, Offshore and Coastal

• Small marine hardware and instrument fastening in severe salt environments
• Offshore panel and instrument enclosure assembly requiring superior stainless locking nuts
• Coastal facility equipment where M6 to M10 stainless fasteners must resist pitting

Electronics, Cryogenics and Low-Magnetic Applications

• Equipment where low magnetic permeability at M6 to M10 is critical
• Cryogenic instrument and sensor mounting rated to -269°C
• Scientific and research equipment requiring Bumax 88 batch-to-batch consistency in magnetic properties
