- These holes can be used to turn the nut by placing a Tommy bar in it.

Wing Nut

|
- It is a nut that has a wide flange at one end that acts as an integrated washer.
- This serves to distribute the pressure of the nut over the part being secured, reducing the chance of damage to the part and making it less likely to loosen as a result of an uneven fastening surface.
- These nuts are mostly hexagonal in shape and are made up of hardened steel and often coated with zinc.
