DIN 935 – Hexagon Slotted Castle Nut

This 3D model represents a DIN 935 – Hexagon Slotted Castle Nut. Hexagon Slotted Castle Nuts are specifically designed to secure components onto threaded bolts or studs while allowing for the insertion of a cotter pin through the slots in the nut and the bolt or stud. This unique design enhances the overall safety and reliability of the fastening system by preventing the nut from unintentionally loosening due to vibrations or external forces. The slots in the nut enable the insertion of a cotter pin, which, once installed, acts as a secure lock, ensuring that the nut remains in place. This configuration is commonly used in applications where maintaining a tight and secure connection is critical, such as in automotive, machinery, or construction industries.
