Shear Nuts

Shear nuts are engineered to deliver a permanent fastening solution that offers exceptional resistance against removal once installed. These nuts are typically driven using a socket or spanner, similar to standard nuts. However, what sets shear nuts apart is their unique design: the hexagonal portion of the nut is specifically engineered to shear off at a pre-determined torque level during installation. This deliberate shearing mechanism ensures that once the nut is tightened to the specified torque, the hexagonal head breaks away, leaving behind a tamper-proof head with no recess. As a result, shear nuts serve as an effective security measure, making it extremely difficult for unauthorized individuals to tamper with or remove the fastening without specialized equipment or knowledge.
