Bowmalloy BOWMP36612 Hex Nut 5/16-24 Grade 9 Steel

Product Description

The BOWMALLOY BOWMP36612 is a Grade 9 steel hex nut with a 5/16-24 thread size and a Bowma-Guard protective finish. It features a right-hand thread direction and is built to handle the high-strength fastening demands common in heavy equipment, industrial machinery, and structural assemblies. The Bowma-Guard finish provides corrosion resistance suited for demanding service environments. At 0.5 inches across the flats and 0.268 inches in height, this nut meets the dimensional requirements for standard 5/16-24 fine-thread applications. Installation is straightforward using standard hex tooling. This nut is sold in a package quantity of 50.

This hex nut is appropriate for use in industrial, commercial, and trade applications where fine-thread, high-strength fastening is required. The Grade 9 material specification makes it well suited for applications involving high clamping loads, vibration resistance, or heavy mechanical stress. Typical install scenarios include agricultural equipment, heavy truck and trailer assemblies, and industrial fabrication where superior tensile strength over standard Grade 5 or Grade 8 hardware is needed.

Key Features

• Grade 9 steel construction for high tensile strength and durability
• 5/16-24 fine-thread sizing for precise thread engagement
• Bowma-Guard finish for enhanced corrosion protection
• Right-hand thread direction for standard fastener compatibility
• 0.5 inches across the flats for use with standard hex wrenches and sockets

Compatibility

Designed as a high-strength replacement or service hex nut for 5/16-24 fine-thread applications in industrial, agricultural, and heavy mechanical assemblies requiring Grade 9 fastener specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified mechanical trades familiar with high-strength fastener procedures. Always verify thread engagement depth and mating bolt grade before torquing. Apply fasteners using calibrated torque tools appropriate for Grade 9 hardware specifications. Inspect the mating bolt threads for wear or damage before installation to ensure full thread contact.
