Value Collection 0-EF-816CS7- Wing Nut 3/8-16 Unc Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0-EF-816CS7- is a standard wing nut machined from 1015/1025 carbon steel with no surface coating. It accepts a 3/8-16 UNC right-hand thread and is designed for applications where frequent manual tightening and loosening is required without tools. The wing span measures 3 inches, the wing height measures 0.75 inches, and the base diameter measures 1 inch. This fastener suits general-purpose assembly, maintenance panels, enclosures, and equipment covers across mechanical, electrical, and HVAC service work.

This wing nut fits standard 3/8-16 UNC threaded fasteners and is suited for both light industrial and trade service applications. Common uses include securing access panels, junction box covers, equipment guards, and structural frames where hand-removal is a regular part of service routines. The uncoated steel construction is appropriate for indoor and dry-environment installations. Tradespeople across HVAC, electrical, and plumbing service will encounter this fastener type on a wide range of equipment and field-fabricated mounting assemblies.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 UNC right-hand thread for broad compatibility with standard threaded rod and bolts
• 1015/1025 carbon steel construction for reliable tensile strength in general fastening applications
• 3 inch wing span allows hand-tightening without tools, speeding up routine service access
• Uncoated finish — suitable for dry indoor environments and clean mechanical assemblies
• 1 inch base diameter provides stable seating against mating surfaces
• Series 816 standard wing nut geometry for consistent fitment on common threaded hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or stock wing nut for any 3/8-16 UNC threaded fastener application in general mechanical and trade-service assembly.

Installation Notes

Wing nuts are installed and removed by hand. No wrenches or power tools should be used, as over-torquing can crack the wings. Before servicing equipment secured by wing nuts, ensure the system is de-energized and depressurized per applicable codes. Inspect mating threads for damage before installation to ensure full thread engagement.
