DIN 935 Class 10 Slotted Castle Nuts Steel Zinc Plated

DIN 935 Class 10 Slotted Castle Nuts – Zinc Plated Steel

FULLERKREG DIN 935 Class 10 Hexagon Slotted Castle Nuts are manufactured from 35K medium-to-high-strength carbon steel with a Zinc Cr3 (trivalent chromium zinc plating) surface finish. Conforming to DIN 935 / ISO 7035 standards, Class 10 castle nuts deliver a higher proof load than Class 8, making them the preferred choice for safety-critical, high-torque, and heavy-load assemblies. Designed for use with cotter pins or split pins to provide positive mechanical locking, these nuts are widely used in automotive axle systems, heavy construction equipment, mining machinery, and industrial drive systems where both superior strength and vibration resistance are essential.
