High-strength blackened nuts are nuts that form a black Fe₃O₄ oxide film on the surface of alloy steel through chemical oxidation (blackening treatment). The base material is usually 42CrMo or 65 manganese steel. After quenching + tempering treatment, the hardness can reach HRC35-45.

Material:
42CrMo alloy steel (static high load): tensile strength ≥1000MPa;
65 manganese steel (elasticity requirement): hardness HRC40-45, suitable for spring nuts.
Features:
High temperature resistance: The oxide film is stable below 200℃, which is better than the galvanized layer;
No risk of hydrogen embrittlement: The chemical oxidation process avoids hydrogen embrittlement of electroplating, which is suitable for precision equipment;
Wear resistance: The oxide film hardness is HV300-400, which can resist slight friction.
Functions:
Withstand high-frequency vibration or impact loads to prevent bolts from loosening;
Maintain stable performance in high temperature environments (such as engine cylinder block connection).
Scenario:
Automobile engine (cylinder head bolts), mining machinery (crusher connection), wind power equipment (spindle flange).
Installation:
When used with high-strength bolts, tighten strictly according to the torque coefficient (such as 0.11-0.15);
Clean the surface oil before installation to ensure that the oxide film is tightly bonded to the substrate.
Maintenance:
Check the integrity of the oxide film regularly, and the damaged parts need to be re-blackened;
Avoid long-term immersion in electrolyte to prevent the oxide film from being damaged.
Select materials according to load: 42CrMo is suitable for static high load, 65 manganese steel is suitable for elastic requirements;
For high temperature scenarios (>300℃), ceramic coating or stainless steel nuts should be used instead.
