What Are 718 Inconel Nuts?

718 Inconel nuts are high-performance fasteners that are used in a wide range of industrial applications. As their name implies, they are made from a nickel alloy called Inconel 718 that offers superior strength, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance compared to other nuts. These nuts also feature an internal threading pattern that helps ensure optimal performance when paired with other components.

Applications of 718 Inconel Nuts

Due to their enhanced strength and corrosion resistance, 718 Inconel Nuts can be used in any application where stainless or carbon steel nuts may have previously been used. 

Some common applications include automotive, aerospace, marine, chemical processing, oil & gas production, food processing equipment manufacturing, etc. They can also be used for non-critical applications such as electrical wiring or plumbing fixtures where higher levels of corrosion resistance are desired.

Benefits of 718 Inconel Nuts

718 Inconel nuts offer numerous benefits over traditional stainless or carbon steel nuts. They offer superior corrosion resistance, which makes them ideal for harsh environments where normal stainless steel or carbon steel rusts quickly. 

They also offer excellent heat resistance, which allows them to handle higher temperatures than regular nuts without warping or becoming brittle. Finally, their enhanced strength makes them ideal for applications where extra hold is needed, such as in aerospace and automotive components.
