A449 or A194 2H Nuts 1

[RARWOOD]

I am specifying some A449 solid rods with 2" of thread on each end. I have a table from American Fastener that lists bolt & nut specifications. In the table it lists A449 bolts but no AA449 nuts.

Do I specify an A449 nut? Or do I specify an A194 2H nut, which like an A449 bolt, is medium carbon steel quenched & tempered?

A 449 is a bolt standard, not a nut standard. The "suitable nut" standard per A 449 is A 563. (And washers should be F 436 type 1 or 3.)
