YEs, by definition. Otherwise they'd be pentanuts, septuanuts, octonuts, or nononutas, or even decinuts.

No, a hex nut has six sides, a top, a bottom, and a hole in the middle. I make that nine sides.

Think, people!

If it has 6 flats does that mean you can rent it out as accomodation.

No. They only have six sides in counting systems of base seven or more. In binary, they have 110 sides.

Flats are apartments which take up an entire storey of a building.

Apartments are compartments which share a storey of a building.

Not with all the STDs around these days they aren't.

Six flats? That's the key of Gb. Barre chords all the way, unless you use a capo.

If you're talking facets, I count 22
(including the inside bore as 2 facets, since it's threaded) on the common double-chamfered one on the right here. Castle hex nuts have more sides, as do slotted ones and lock ones.

How about the ambihelical hexnut?

As far as I can see, it's an object that can only exist in four dimensions, and has one surface, which exists in 3 D

I knew a guy who really got into Wiccan and black magic; he kept pestering the girls to show him how they did their stuff with spells. He was a real hex nut, and a one-dimensional personality to boot.

If it has 6 flats does that mean you can rent it out as accomodation.

If it has two flats, you can rent it out as a B-flat accordion.
