Value Collection 0-DE-700DS7- 5/16-18 Wing Nut

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0-DE-700DS7- is a standard wing nut machined from steel grade 1015/1025, designed for 5/16-18 UNC threaded fastener applications. The wing nut format allows for hand-tightening and quick removal without tools, making it a practical choice for assemblies that require frequent access or field adjustment. With a wing span of 1.44 inches and a wing height of 0.69 inches, this nut provides adequate leverage for finger-driven installation. The uncoated steel finish suits general-purpose indoor mechanical and structural applications. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance trades use standard wing nuts wherever tool-free fastening is preferred.

This wing nut is suited for light-duty threaded rod, stud, and bolt assemblies in residential and commercial maintenance applications. Typical uses include securing access panels, pipe hangers, enclosure covers, and equipment brackets where hand-tightening is sufficient. The right-hand thread direction and UNC thread standard make it compatible with standard inch-series threaded fasteners found throughout mechanical, electrical, and plumbing installations. This part is sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Installation Notes

Wing nuts are typically installed and removed by hand. Confirm the mating fastener thread is 5/16-18 UNC before installation to avoid cross-threading. Do not use power tools to drive or remove wing nuts, as the wing geometry is not rated for torque tool engagement. Inspect threads on both the nut and mating fastener before installation to ensure clean, undamaged engagement.
