Flat Square Nuts (DIN 562) – Stainless Steel A2 (SUS304)
FULLERKREG DIN 562 thin pattern square nuts are manufactured to the Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN) standard in stainless steel grade A2 (SUS304) with a passivated / pickled surface finish. Their four-sided geometry provides a larger bearing surface than hexagonal nuts, enabling higher clamping torque and superior resistance to loosening. The reduced thickness compared to DIN 557 counterparts makes them ideal for space-constrained assemblies.

Standard Reference
DIN 562 specifies thin pattern square nuts with metric threads. The DIN standard is widely adopted in Germany, Europe, and globally. Although ISO standards are progressively replacing DIN designations, DIN 562 remains in active use for applications where no direct ISO equivalent exists or where legacy compatibility is required. FULLERKREG manufactures these nuts in strict conformance with DIN 562 dimensional tolerances.
