DIN 74361 A 10 zinc Wheel nut spherical, hexagonal with flange

Overview

DIN 74361 A 10 with a zinc coating is a hex wheel nut with a form A flange designed to help center the part relative to the fastener axis. It is made of quality steel with strength class 10, providing resistance to appropriate mechanical loads. The zinc coating provides additional corrosion protection and is suitable for standard operating conditions, including increased humidity.

DIN 74361 A 10 is a good choice for the automotive industry, commercial vehicles, trailer equipment, and other applications where reliable and durable connections are required.

A flange nut is a fastening element that creates a detachable threaded connection with an increased clamping area. This helps distribute pressure over the material and improve connection stability. DIN 74361 is often referred to as a wheel nut because it is most commonly used in mechanical engineering for wheel fastening.

The DIN 74361 standard includes several design forms: a conical flange, form A, which helps center the part on the axis by seating the cone in the wheel disc hole; a standard flange, form B, similar in purpose to flange nuts such as DIN 6331; and form H — a version with a flange that is an integral part of the nut but can rotate relative to the nut body.

Applications

The DIN 74361 A 10 wheel nut with a zinc coating has a form A flange that helps center the connected parts relative to the fastener axis. This makes it suitable for applications where accurate seating, reliability, and connection stability are important, such as wheel assemblies in commercial vehicles, trailers, and other transport equipment.

The hex shape with a flange provides convenient installation and a stable connection, while the zinc coating provides additional corrosion protection, which is important for use in increased humidity and standard outdoor applications.

Technical Specifications
