Notes
Nuts and washers, including specially designed, are to be classified in this FSC. a. Nuts are a small metal block made in a variety of shapes such as square and hexagonal which is drilled and internally threaded. b.

They are used primarily as a seat for a bolt, nut, screw, rivet or nail to distribute pressure and prevent endwise motion over an area and/or to prevent movement between two parts by means of restraining features created by the shape of its edges.
