Wing Nuts
When particular types of fasteners need to be tightened or loosened frequently
without the use of tools, wing nuts are the perfect solutions. Characterized by their "wing" shaped protrusions, wing nuts allow someone to turn and tighten these
fasteners by hand. There are concerns associated with wing nuts, however, that one
should be aware of.
Wing Nuts: Convenience Versus Strength
Wing nuts are generally used in marine oriented applications, such as on boats or
other sea going vessels. The need for wing nuts has evolved from the need for the
speed and convenience tightening and loosening a wing nut by hand affords. On the
open water, it is harder to use tools in any kind of intricate fashion. For ship board
components that may need to be dealt with while on the choppy sea, wing nuts are
essential.
Wing nuts are generally considered by most to be a weaker type of nut, but this is
not necessarily the case. The wing shaped protrusions are thought to be easy to
break off, and the extra size makes them more vulnerable to corrosion. This is why
you will find that most wing nuts have a hex head on them just like a normal nut. This
is just in case the wings break off and the nut needs to be removed or tightened with
a wrench.
Higher quality wing nuts, like Zinc plated steel and stainless steel 18-8 are very
sturdy and are resistant to corrosion in marine conditions. Stainless steel 18-8 is, in
particular, an extremely high quality of metal and is the most popular choice for
boats. Our knowledgeable staff here at NutsandBolts.com is happy to help and
advise you with any questions you may have about the right type of wing nuts to use.

NOTES:
- In addition to the indicated grade marking, all grades, except A563 grades O, A and B, must be marked for manufacturer identification.
- The markings shown for all grades of A194 nuts are for cold formed and hot forged nuts. When nuts are machined from bar stock the nut must be additionally marked with the letter ‘B’.
- Nuts are not required to be marked unless specified by the purchaser. When marked, the identification marking shall be the grade letter O, A or B.
- Properties shown are those of nonplated or noncoated coarse thread hex nuts.Properties shown are those of coarse thread heavy hex nuts.
- Properties shown are those of coarse thread heavy hex nuts.
- Properties shown are those of coarse 8-pitch thread heavy hex nuts.
- Hardnesses are Brinell Hardness Numbers.
- The nut manufacturer, at his option, may add other markings to indicate the use of atmospheric corrosion resistant steel.
- Specifications —
- STM A563 — Carbon and Alloy Steel Nuts.
