Description
Overview:
The Chimney Nut (Pack of 20) is a metal fastener for securing panels and sheet metal to frames, brackets, and bodywork. With an M6 thread, each nut provides a firm, vibration‐resistant fixing where access is limited to one side. Common in automotive bodywork, workshop fabrication, and plant and garden machinery, they help mount guards, covers, ducts, and trim quickly and neatly. The compact "chimney" profile offers clearance for the screw while guiding it square to the panel. Dimensions are 16mm width, 24mm length, and a 12mm range to suit typical panel offsets. Supplied as a pack of 20 for convenience on larger jobs or regular maintenance tasks. Metal construction supports long service life under regular use.
Key Features:
- M6 thread for a secure, standardised fit with common M6 machine screws and bolts
- Dimensions: 16mm (width) x 24mm (length) with a 12mm range for panel offset accommodation
- Stable, guided screw path helps align fixings and reduce cross‐threading
- Strong metal construction for dependable clamping and durability
- Works where you only have access from one side of the panel
- Quick to position and remove for routine maintenance and repairs
- Clean finish without the need for welded nuts or rivet nuts in many tasks
- Suitable for steel, aluminium, and coated sheet panels when used with the correct screw
- Useful across automotive, machinery, HVAC, and general fabrication work
- Supplied in a pack of 20 to cover multiple fixings or spares on site
- Appearance may vary slightly between batches while meeting the stated M6 and size specification
Typical Applications:
Fixing body panels, trims, and liners on cars, vans, and trailers; mounting guards, covers, and cowls on mowers, compactors, generators, and workshop equipment; securing ducting, enclosures, and brackets in HVAC and fabrication; attaching racking, signage, and electrical backplates where a fast, one‐side installation is preferred.
Also known as:
Often referred to as a clip nut, speed nut, sheet metal nut, spire nut, or U‐clip nut. These terms describe similar panel fasteners that provide a captive thread on sheet material, enabling a neat, reliable fixing without access to the rear of the panel.
