Description of Titanium Flange Nut with 6 Points
Titanium Flange Nut with 6 Points is a high-performance fastener made from premium titanium alloy,
designed for applications that demand exceptional strength, light
weight, and corrosion resistance.
This type of nut integrates a hexagonal (6-point) head with a flanged base, which increases the contact surface area to ensure a secure
connection and improved load distribution.
Titanium 6-Point Flange Nuts are widely used in the aerospace, automotive, marine, and industrial sectors due to their superior mechanical properties and
reliability in harsh environments. They are available in various
sizes, pitches, and colours to meet specific engineering needs.
Advantages of the Titanium Flange Nut with 6 Points
High Specific Strength
Titanium has a density of 4.51 g/cm³, lighter than steel but significantly stronger. Titanium flange
nuts provide excellent mechanical strength while minimising overall
weight, ideal for performance-critical applications.
Outstanding Corrosion Resistance
Titanium and its alloys are stable in most chemical media,
including seawater, acids, and alkalis, making these nuts perfect
for marine and chemical processing environments.
Excellent Heat and Low-Temperature Resistance
Titanium maintains its performance at temperatures up to 600°C and as low as −250°C, ensuring dimensional stability and reliability under extreme
conditions.
Non-Magnetic and Biocompatible
Titanium is non-magnetic, non-toxic, and highly compatible with the human body, suitable for sensitive
environments such as medical, aerospace, and electronic applications.
Superior Vibration Damping
Titanium exhibits excellent damping capacity, meaning it absorbs
vibration more effectively than steel or copper. This makes it
useful for high-precision instruments and vibration-sensitive
systems.
