Small Pattern Hex Machine Screw Nuts

Small pattern hex nuts are machine screw nuts with a narrower width across the flats than standard nuts. They fit into tight spaces, close to walls, between components and in recesses, where a regular nut or wrench won't. The width across the flats is listed on each item so you can check clearance first.

FAQ

How is this different from a standard machine screw nut?
Same thread, smaller hex. For example, a standard #8-32 nut is 11/32" across the flats, while the small pattern version is 1/4" or 5/16".

What wrench or driver do I need?
Use a nut driver that matches the width across the flats shown in the product name.
