Wing nuts are locking elements that can be tightened or loosened by hand without tools. They are available in various shapes, including the German DIN 314 shape and the American type, although the design differs slightly. The German type has rounded wings, while the American type often has longer, narrower wings. They are available in materials such as steel and stainless steel, with stainless steel offering greater corrosion-resistance. Wing nuts are suitable for applications where regular manual installation and removal is required, such as platform structures or machine covers. The wing nuts from Würth are characterised by their high quality. They are manufactured to precise standards and guarantee robustness and durability, even under intensive use.
