Value Collection 0-EF-720BS7- Wing Nut 3/8-16 Unc Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0-EF-720BS7- is a standard wing nut machined from steel grade 1015-1025, designed for hand-tightened fastening applications where frequent removal and reinstallation are required. The uncoated finish exposes bare steel, making it suitable for interior or dry-environment use. At a 3/8-16 UNC thread size with a right-hand thread direction, this wing nut fits standard fractional threaded rod, bolts, and studs used across mechanical, plumbing, electrical, and general trade assembly work. The 1.625-inch wing span provides adequate grip surface for tool-free tightening by hand.

This wing nut is used in a wide range of trade and light industrial applications where a threaded fastener must be secured or released without tools. Typical scenarios include panel access covers, equipment guards, junction box covers, ductwork assemblies, and temporary fixture mounting. The 3/8-16 UNC thread standard is one of the most common fractional thread sizes in North American trade work, making this wing nut broadly applicable across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical installation environments. The Series 720 designation identifies the standard wing profile.

Key Features

• 1.625-inch wing span allows hand-tightening without tools
• 1.0-inch wing height provides clearance for finger grip in tight spaces
• 7/8-inch base diameter for stable seating against mating surfaces
• Uncoated finish suitable for dry or interior service environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or supplemental wing nut for 3/8-16 UNC threaded fastener applications in trade and light industrial settings.

Installation Notes

Wing nuts are installed and removed by hand. Before servicing any assembly that uses this fastener, de-energize or depressurize the system as required by applicable codes. Avoid over-torquing by hand, as steel wing nuts at this grade are intended for light clamping loads only. Inspect threads on the mating bolt or stud before installation to ensure clean engagement.
