If you are using them for Polyphasers you really don't need the flats.  
I've been using them for years and never bothered.  The Nut and washer 
will hold them securely and I've never had one turn of come loose yet. I 
do use a socket for tightening the nut. Remember they also come with a 
bracket that lets you mount them on a bulkhead, instead of going through 
one. I prefer to go through.
