How to Use This Table
- Find the side length → Choose the length of one side of the hexagonal nut.
- Look up the corresponding corner-to-corner distance → This is the distance between two opposite corners of the nut.
- Use these values for nut size selection, manufacturing, machining, or material planning.
How is Corner-to-Corner Distance Calculated?
Where:
- Side Length = The length of one side of the hexagon (or nut).
- Corner-to-Corner Distance = The distance from one corner of the nut to the opposite corner.
Key Takeaways
- Larger side lengths result in larger corner-to-corner distances.
- Hexagonal nuts are widely used in engineering, mechanical design, and manufacturing.
- Knowing the corner-to-corner distance helps in determining the compatibility of nuts with bolt sizes.
