Integral Seal Nuts are a type of fastener with an integrated sealing feature, combining the functionality of a nut and a sealing component into a single unit. These nuts provide reliable protection while simplifying the assembly process and eliminating the need for additional sealing components. They prevent the entry of water, dust, or other contaminants providing bi-directional sealing.

This range of Integral Seal hexagonal nuts incorporates an O-ring which is compressed and squeezed between the nut and mating component.

They are suitable for temperatures from -100C to +260C and are reusable. Integral Seal Nuts are used in applications such as cabinets or used in the automotive, machinery and electric industries.Please Note: Clearance holes are recommended for optimal sealing performance (see measurements below). Clearance hole depth is 2-3 times the thread pitch; threads are metric coarse pitch.
