A Square Nut or a square head nut is a steel fastener with four sides nut, that is designed for use with a square head bolt and flat washer. These types of nuts offer a great surface that connects with the part being fastened and therefore provides greater resistance to loosening. Square nuts are usually mated with square-headed bolts. These nut works very well in tight places when using a wrench or pliers and are less likely to become rounded off after repeated loosening.
The Square nut can be used as a small fastener for applications to greater ones. The sharp corner of this nut was commonly destructive to the wood or metal surrounding the fastener. The square nuts themselves were commonly forged with a flat side and a convex side. The flat side was created to allow the nuts to fit flat against a flat washer, while the convex side served to provide a small bit of comfort when the nut is used under a hubcap. Modern manufacturing continues to use the square nut in the construction of many furniture items.
