304 stainless steel male-female threaded nut

Male-female refers to a single component that has an external thread (male) on one end and an internal thread (female) on the other. This allows the nut to act as a coupling or standoff, connecting two threaded components without additional adapters or parts.

Yes — the male and female threads are independently specifiable. This enables mixed-size connections, such as an M6 male thread with an M10 female thread, or metric-to-imperial combinations. This feature is particularly useful for equipment adaptation and maintenance.

Customizable features include: independent male and female thread sizes, thread engagement depth, overall length, body profile (hex, round, knurled, flanged), surface finish (bright, passivated, electropolished, bead blasted), custom markings, and special locking features such as nylon patch inserts.

304 stainless steel offers good corrosion resistance and is suitable for many marine applications. For continuous saltwater immersion or high-chloride environments, we recommend 316 stainless steel which provides enhanced pitting resistance. We can supply 316 material upon request for demanding marine or coastal projects.
