Square nuts are typically used in conjunction with square bolts or are commonly used with pole line hardware. Since hot-dip galvanizing typically adds 2.2 to 5 mils of thickness to the threaded portion of a fastener, galvanized hex square nuts are tapped oversize to compensate for the corrosion resistant coating on the bolts.
