The switch from square to hexagon nuts began in the late 19th century, primarily in the 1860s and 1870s. Hexagon nuts became more popular due to their ease of use, as they provide better grip and allow for more torque when tightened. The transition was largely complete by the early 20th century, as hexagon nuts became the standard in many industries.
