Flange Nut Sleeve Gecko – M6 X 8 X 40 MM (12pcs)

Whatsapp Order


A flange nut sleeve gecko is a type of nut with a wide flange at one end that acts as an integrated, non-spinning washer. This flange provides additional bearing surface and helps distribute the load, reducing the chance of the nut loosening. Flange nuts are commonly used in applications where vibration or movement might cause a standard nut to come loose.

As for “sleeve gecko,” it seems like a combination of two terms. A sleeve is typically a cylindrical covering or tube, while a gecko is a type of lizard. Without additional context, it’s unclear what “sleeve gecko” might refer to. If it’s a specific term or product, more information would be needed to provide an accurate definition

Safety measures and precautions

  1. Proper Installation: Ensure that flange nuts are properly installed according to the manufacturer’s specifications. Follow torque recommendations and tightening procedures to achieve the desired clamping force.
  2. Inspection of Components: Regularly inspect both the flange nut and the mating surfaces to detect any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Replace components that show signs of degradation to maintain the integrity of the fastening system.
  3. Use of Suitable Materials: Choose flange nuts made from materials suitable for the specific environment and application. Consider factors such as corrosion resistance, temperature tolerance, and chemical compatibility.
  4. Correct Torque Application: Use a calibrated torque wrench to apply the correct amount of torque during installation. Over-tightening or under-tightening can lead to issues, including the potential for the nut to loosen over time or failure of the fastening system.
  5. Prevention of Cross-Threaded Nuts: Ensure that the nut is threaded onto the bolt correctly and avoid cross-threading, as this can compromise the integrity of the connection.
  6. Anti-Vibration Measures: In applications where vibration is a concern, consider using additional measures such as locking mechanisms or thread-locking compounds to prevent the flange nut from loosening over time.
  7. Proper Maintenance: Implement a regular maintenance schedule to inspect and re-torque flange nuts as needed. This is particularly important in environments with high vibration or temperature fluctuations.
  8. Appropriate PPE: When working with flange nuts in industrial settings, wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves and eye protection, to prevent injuries.
  9. Training and Education: Ensure that personnel involved in the installation and maintenance of flange nuts are properly trained on correct procedures, safety protocols, and the potential hazards associated with their use.
  10. Documentation and Record Keeping: Maintain records of installation dates, torque values, and any maintenance or inspections performed. This documentation can be valuable for tracking the history of the fastening system.
