These small-profile retaining fasteners are a standard component in commercial cooking and foodservice equipment assemblies, where secure fastening is required in high-heat, high-vibration environments. Installation is typically performed by a commercial appliance technician or equipment service professional during repair or component replacement procedures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis palnut is suited for use in commercial kitchen equipment applications where a 5\/16-18 thread specification is required. It serves as a replacement or spare part in foodservice equipment assemblies such as ranges, ovens, broilers, and griddles manufactured under the GARLAND brand. The 5\/16-18 designation indicates a unified coarse (UNC) thread size, making it compatible with standard 5\/16-inch threaded studs and bolts of that thread pitch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/16-18 UNC thread specification for compatibility with standard coarse-thread fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePush-on palnut design locks onto threaded studs without tools in most applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for use in high-vibration commercial cooking equipment assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM GARLAND replacement part for reliable fit and function\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement fastener for GARLAND commercial cooking and foodservice equipment requiring a 5\/16-18 palnut retainer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and replacement of fastener hardware on commercial cooking equipment should be performed by a qualified service technician. Always disconnect power and shut off gas supply to the appliance before beginning any service work. Palnuts are typically pressed onto a threaded stud by hand or with light tool pressure and are generally considered single-use fasteners — replace with a new palnut rather than reusing a removed one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-18 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Palnut (Push-On Retaining Nut)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GARLAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4518173\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARLAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51201741193522,"sku":"4518173","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307143247.jpg?v=1779698159","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/garland-4518173-palnut-5-16-18-thread-fastener","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
