Product Overview

What are EN 24 (4340 Equiv.) Nuts?

EN 24 (4340 Equivalent) nuts are high-strength alloy steel fasteners manufactured from EN 24 (AISI 4340) bar stock, a nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy renowned for its exceptional toughness and fatigue resistance. These nuts are typically supplied in the quenched and tempered condition, achieving high tensile and yield strengths suitable for critical bolted joints in demanding engineering applications.

EN 24 nuts are widely specified for use in heavy-duty mechanical assemblies, high-stress flange connections, and rotating equipment where both strength and ductility are essential. They conform to international standards such as ASTM A194 Grade 7 and DIN 934, ensuring compatibility with high-strength bolts and studs in the oil & gas, power generation, and heavy machinery sectors.

Material Chemistry

EN 24 (4340) Chemical Composition

EN 24 (4340 Equiv.) Nuts are produced from medium-carbon or alloy steel with carbon (0.15–0.55%), chromium, manganese, and boron additions controlled per ASTM and ISO 898-1. Carbon content and quench-and-temper heat treatment are the primary strength levers, delivering proof loads from 580 MPa (Class 8.8) to 970 MPa (Class 12.9).

Why EN 24 (4340 Equiv.) Alloy Composition Matters for Nuts

Ni-Cr-Mo Alloying — Strength & Toughness
The combination of nickel, chromium, and molybdenum in EN 24 (4340) provides outstanding tensile strength, impact resistance, and ductility, making these nuts ideal for high-load and fatigue-prone bolted joints.
Controlled Carbon — Hardenability
A carbon content of 0.36–0.44% ensures deep hardenability during heat treatment, allowing EN 24 nuts to achieve uniform strength and hardness throughout their cross-section.
Low S & P — Clean Steel
Strict limits on sulphur and phosphorus reduce the risk of embrittlement and improve the reliability of nuts in critical service conditions.

EN 24 (4340) nuts are available to DIN 934 (metric hex), ISO 4032, ASME B18.2.2 (inch hex and heavy hex), and BS 1768 (inch hex). Custom thread forms such as UNC, UNF, BSW, and BSF can be supplied on request. All nuts are manufactured from certified EN 24/4340 bar and supplied with full traceability.
For EN 24 (4340) nuts, use a molybdenum disulphide or graphite-based anti-seize compound to prevent galling and ensure consistent preload. Avoid copper-based anti-seize in corrosive or high-temperature environments. Always apply lubricant to both threads and nut bearing surfaces for optimal performance.
Yes – EN 24 (4340) nuts, when properly heat treated, retain good impact toughness down to -50°C, making them suitable for low-temperature and cryogenic applications such as LNG plants and cold storage vessels. Impact test certification can be provided on request.
