Value Collection 0-DE-755C87- Wing Nut 5/16-18 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0-DE-755C87- is a standard wing nut made from steel with a zinc plated finish, intended for general fastening applications across mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical assembly work. It features a 5/16-18 UNC right-hand thread and is manufactured to material grade 1015/1025 steel. The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty service environments. The wing design allows for hand-tightening without tools, making it well suited for panels, covers, and access points that require frequent removal. Tradespeople and maintenance technicians working on equipment enclosures, ductwork access panels, and junction boxes commonly use this fastener type.

This wing nut is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a 5/16-18 UNC threaded stud or bolt is present. Typical uses include securing access covers on HVAC equipment, mounting panels on electrical enclosures, and general mechanical assembly where tool-free removal is desirable. It fits standard 5/16-18 UNC threaded fasteners and is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools and is performed by hand-threading onto a compatible 5/16-18 UNC stud or bolt. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing panels or enclosures secured by this fastener. Do not over-torque by using pliers or wrenches, as wing nuts are intended for hand-tight applications only. Follow applicable NEC or mechanical code requirements when securing electrical or equipment enclosure covers.
