Chimney Nuts
Chimney Nuts are commonly used to securely fasten two panels or sheet materials together. Chimney nuts clip on to the edge of panel or sheet and can be used as a float for hole misalignment, providing a secure and tight fit when used with usually a bolt. Their clever design allows for quick installation and a reliable hold, even in spaces where access is limited or only one side of the workpiece is reachable.
Chimney nuts, while sometimes referred to as ‘U’ Nuts, differ from the common standard ‘U’ Nut as they are internally threaded to securely hold bolts in place. They are used in heavy duty applications where high tightening torques are required, such as automotive, HVAC or appliance assemblies.
M4, M5, M6 and M8 Chimney Nuts are manufactured from Carbon Spring Steel, CR3 Bright Zinc Plated.
The M10 Lug nut is an addition to this range, available in carbon spring steel with a delta silver 240 finish.
