Bowmalloy BOWMP36616 Hex Nut 9/16-18 Grade 9 Steel

Product Description

The BOWMALLOY BOWMP36616 is a Grade 9 steel hex nut in a 9/16-18 thread size, finished with BOWMALLOY's Bowma-Guard protective coating. Grade 9 fasteners are engineered for high-strength applications where standard hardware-grade nuts are not adequate. The Bowma-Guard finish provides corrosion resistance suited to demanding service environments. This nut measures 7/8 inch across the flats and 0.486 inches in height, with a right-hand thread direction. It is a standard item for mechanical assembly work in industrial, commercial, and heavy-duty trade applications wherever a high-strength 9/16-18 hex nut is specified.

This hex nut is used in structural, mechanical, and equipment assembly applications that call for high-strength Grade 9 fasteners. The 9/16-18 fine thread pitch is common in applications requiring greater tensile strength and vibration resistance compared to coarse-thread equivalents. Typical users include industrial maintenance technicians, equipment assemblers, and trade professionals working on heavy-duty machinery, vehicular equipment, and structural connections. It is sold in packages of 25 units, making it practical for both single-use service calls and ongoing shop inventory.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 9/16-18 fine-thread fastener systems requiring a Grade 9 hex nut in industrial, mechanical, and heavy-duty equipment assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or maintenance technician familiar with high-strength fastener torque requirements. Always ensure mating bolt or stud is the same thread specification before assembly. De-energize and lock out any equipment before performing fastener service on live machinery. Do not mix Grade 9 hardware with lower-grade fasteners in the same joint.
