Thin Hexagon Nuts (DIN 439) — Marine Stainless Steel A4 (SS316)
FULLERKREG DIN 439 thin hexagon nuts in A4 marine-grade stainless steel (SUS 316 / 1.4401) offer superior corrosion resistance compared to standard A2 (SS304), making them the preferred choice for marine, offshore, chemical processing, and highly corrosive environments. Manufactured to DIN 439 / ISO 4035 standards with a reduced height profile for jam-nut and locking applications. All nuts are passivated and whitened for a clean, bright finish and enhanced surface protection.
