Holo-krome 06048 Allen Nut 7/16-14 Uncoated Steel

Product Description

The HOLO-KROME 06048 is an uncoated steel Allen nut with a 7/16-14 thread size. Allen nuts, also called socket nuts, feature a hex socket drive that accepts an Allen wrench or hex key rather than a conventional wrench on the outside. This design allows fastening in recessed or tight spaces where an open-end or box wrench cannot reach. The 06048 uses a 7/16-inch hex key drive and is manufactured from uncoated steel, making it suited for general industrial, mechanical, and trade assembly applications where a corrosion-resistant finish is not required.

This Allen nut is used in general mechanical assembly, industrial maintenance, and trade fabrication scenarios where a low-profile or recessed-drive fastener is needed. Its 7/16-14 thread specification follows the Unified National Coarse thread standard, which is standard across a wide range of domestic mechanical and structural applications. Typical installers include millwrights, pipefitters, electricians, and maintenance technicians working on equipment assemblies, frames, or fixtures.

Key Features

• 7/16-14 UNC thread for compatibility with standard coarse-thread applications
• 7/16-inch hex key drive allows installation in confined or recessed spaces
• Uncoated steel construction for general-duty fastening
• Compact Allen nut profile where external wrench clearance is limited

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or service fastener for mechanical assemblies requiring a 7/16-14 UNC thread Allen nut with a 7/16-inch hex socket drive.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 7/16-inch Allen wrench or hex key. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before engagement. Follow applicable torque specifications for the application as defined by the equipment manufacturer or relevant trade standards. Inspect the fastener and mating thread for damage before installation.
