ASTM A325 Nuts

ASTM A325 Nuts refers to the required high-strength heavy hex nuts specifically designed for use with ASTM A325 structural bolts. The nut specification most commonly paired with A325 bolts is ASTM A563 Grade DH (or A194 Grade 2H), which guarantees the necessary proof load and structural integrity to match the high clamping force of the A325 bolt. These heavy hex nuts are manufactured from high-quality carbon steel, often quenched and tempered, to ensure reliable performance in critical structural applications, such as bridges, skyscrapers, and industrial steel frameworks. Zeron Fastners supplies these companion nuts to complete the high-strength A325 bolted assembly.
