The nylon insert compresses against the bolt threads when the nut is driven home, creating friction-based resistance to vibration-induced loosening without damaging the mating threads. At 29\/64 inches tall with a 9\/16-inch width across flats, this fastener fits standard 9\/16-inch open-end and box wrenches. Suitable for mechanical assemblies in corrosive or moisture-prone environments where stainless material is specified. HVAC, plumbing, and equipment-mounting applications commonly call for this thread size and material grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nut is used in light to medium mechanical assemblies requiring vibration resistance and corrosion protection. The 3\/8-24 UNF fine thread pitch provides stronger thread engagement per inch than coarse thread equivalents, making it a common choice in HVAC equipment brackets, pump mounting hardware, and electrical enclosure hardware where stainless fasteners are required by spec or environment. Right-hand thread direction is standard for conventional installation. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNylon insert locking style resists vibration loosening without thread damage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-24 UNF fine thread for increased thread engagement strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction for standard installation with conventional tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish — no coating delamination risk in high-humidity service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWidth across flats of 9\/16 inches fits standard open-end, box, and socket wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 3\/8-24 UNF right-hand thread fastener assemblies requiring a nylon insert hex lock nut in 18-8 stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a 9\/16-inch wrench or socket. Power down or de-energize any equipment before servicing fastened assemblies on electrical or HVAC components. Drive the nut to the specified clamping torque for the 3\/8-24 thread size and stainless steel material grade per the applicable mechanical or equipment specification — do not rely on nylon insert drag alone as a torque indicator. Nylon insert lock nuts are generally considered single-use; replace the nut if it has been fully threaded off a fastener and reuse is not approved by your assembly spec.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Lock Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon Insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18-8 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 29\/64 inches (0.453 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inches (0.553 to 0.564 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Points\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.622 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.018 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMilitary Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: Does Not Meet Military Specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-N-37F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692079874354,"sku":"1-N-37F","price":3980.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f3b7d40300c61a00128d5e50721069c6.jpg?v=1788292803","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-1-n-37f-hex-lock-nut-3-8-24-18-8-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
