High-quality hex nut for reliable connections

This hex nut is made from Grade 5 quality steel, ensuring high strength and durability. The electrolytically zinc-plated finish provides excellent protection against corrosion, making the nut suitable for use in a wide range of environments.

Specifications

• Thread type: Unified National Fine (UNF)
• Diameter: 7/8 inch
• Threads per inch: 14
• Standard: ASME B18.2.2
• Material: Steel according to SAE J995
• Surface treatment: Electrolytically zinc-plated

Applications

This hex nut is ideal for applications where a strong and reliable connection is required. Thanks to the fine UNF thread, the nut is particularly suitable for situations where precision and strength are important.

Advantages of electrolytic zinc plating

The electrolytically zinc-plated finish offers several advantages:

• Corrosion protection: Forms a protective layer that prevents rust formation.
• Aesthetically appealing: Gives the nut a shiny, professional appearance.
• Increased lifespan: Contributes to the durability of the nut, even in humid or corrosive environments.

Compatibility and assembly

This nut is designed to meet the ASME B18.2.2 standard, ensuring compatibility with other components that comply with the same standard. The hexagonal shape allows the nut to be easily tightened with standard tools, facilitating assembly.

Importance of Grade 5 steel

The use of Grade 5 steel means the nut has a high tensile strength, comparable to class 8.8 in metric systems. This makes the nut suitable for applications where high loads and stresses occur, without compromising the integrity of the connection.
