The nylon insert creates a prevailing-torque locking action that resists vibration-induced loosening without requiring a secondary locking element. Manufactured from steel with a zinc plated finish, this nut is suited for general mechanical fastening applications across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and light structural assemblies. Each jar contains 100 nuts, making it a practical bench-stock item for service technicians and contractors who run through standard 3\/8-16 hardware regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lock nut is appropriate for residential and commercial trade applications wherever a 3\/8-16 threaded bolt or stud requires a secure, vibration-resistant connection. Common use cases include equipment mounting, panel fastening, pipe hanger assemblies, and equipment support structures. The zinc plated finish provides a degree of corrosion protection suitable for dry and mildly humid indoor environments. The jar packaging keeps hardware organized and accessible on a service vehicle or shop bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNylon insert locking mechanism resists loosening from vibration without secondary hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 thread specification for direct fit with standard 3\/8 inch bolts and studs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction with zinc plated finish for corrosion resistance in indoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e100 nuts per jar for convenient bench-stock or service-van storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAvailable by the case at 48 jars per case for high-volume procurement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 3\/8-16 UNC nylon insert lock nut compatible with any 3\/8 inch diameter, 16 threads-per-inch bolt or threaded stud conforming to standard unified coarse thread specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNylon insert lock nuts are installed by hand-starting the nut onto the bolt thread and tightening with the appropriate wrench to the fastener specification required by the assembly. Power down or de-energize any equipment before fastening hardware in electrical or mechanical enclosures. Note that nylon insert lock nuts are generally considered single-use fasteners, as the locking torque of the nylon insert diminishes with repeated removal and reinstallation. Follow applicable codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines for fastener torque requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon Insert Lock Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Pitch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 per jar\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48 jars per case\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 781035570323\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SELECTA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: LN3816J\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SELECTA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51467710333234,"sku":"LN3816J","price":34.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/313947137.jpg?v=1783911002","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/selecta-ln3816j-3-8-16-nylon-insert-lock-nut-zinc-100-jar","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
