The Unifix Square Pressed Nuts DIN 562 are ideal for DIY enthusiasts and professionals seeking a reliable, low-profile fastening solution for structural or mechanical assemblies. Featuring an M5 x 0.80 thread size and a bright zinc-plated finish, these nuts provide essential corrosion resistance for indoor and light outdoor applications, though they are not intended for high-stress industrial environments requiring heavy-duty torque resistance.

They are bright zinc plated, which offers moderate protection, but they are best suited for indoor use or protected outdoor areas. Avoid constant direct exposure to rain or salt.
You will need a standard M5 bolt and either an open-ended wrench, pliers, or a square-cut housing to secure the nut.
No, these are bright zinc-plated steel. They provide corrosion resistance, but are not as rust-resistant as 304 or 316 grade stainless steel.
This model features a standard 0.80mm thread pitch.
No, these are strictly for M5 bolts. Using them with the wrong size will damage the threads.
Verify that both the nut and the bolt are M5 x 0.80. Ensure there is no debris or paint inside the nut threads.
Ensure the square nut is fully seated within the designated square recess. If no recess exists, use an open-ended wrench or pliers to hold the nut in place.
To ensure a secure connection, verify that your mating bolt is also M5 x 0.80. When installing, place the square nut into its housing or hold it firmly with a pair of pliers if no recess is available. Avoid overtightening with power tools, as the pressed steel construction may strip if subjected to extreme torque beyond standard hand-tightening force. For long-term maintenance, keep the fasteners dry; while the zinc plating is durable, excessive moisture exposure over several years may eventually lead to surface oxidation.
