Review
GOST 5932-73 Socket nuts are nuts that are used on various types of axles and shafts subject to vibration and dynamic loads. Holes are drilled in these axles into which, after tightening the nut, cotter pins are inserted, which in turn pass through vertical slots in the nut. This allows the nut to be securely fastened and prevents it from loosening during vibration.
Fastening group of GOST 5932-73
Nuts of GOST 5932-73 are most often made of stainless steel and belong to the stainless fastener group.
Materials for manufacturing nuts of GOST 5932-73
Socket nuts of GOST 5932-73 are made of the following materials:
- Steel, which can be additionally coated with zinc to protect against corrosion if the fasteners are to be used in aggressive environments.
- Stainless steel grades A2 and A4. Allows the fasteners to be used at significant temperature differences and in aggressive and humid environments.
Application range of nuts of GOST 5932-73
Socket nut GOST 5932-73 is a fastener that greatly reduces the load on the connecting units of mechanisms. It is intended for use in conjunction with bolts that can be completely immersed in the hole. Installation takes place at the expense of the structural part, the so-called crown. GOST 5932-73 is used in mechanical engineering and construction.
