Value Collection 172 Hex Nut M4 X 0.70 18-8 Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 172 is an M4 x 0.70 hex nut machined from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2, with a bright uncoated finish. It features a right-hand thread and conforms to DIN 934 and ISO 4032 fastener standards. The nut measures 7 millimeters across the flats and 3.20 millimeters in height, making it suited for compact metric fastening applications. The 18-8 stainless composition provides corrosion resistance in a wide range of environments, including wet, chemical-adjacent, and outdoor installations. Plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, and general trade mechanics use this type of nut wherever a metric fastener with reliable corrosion resistance is required.

This hex nut is intended for use in metric-threaded assemblies requiring an M4 x 0.70 fastener. Its compliance with DIN 934 and ISO 4032 standards makes it suitable for equipment manufactured to European or international metric specifications. Typical applications include control panel assemblies, equipment brackets, plumbing fixture mounting, and light-duty structural connections in corrosion-prone environments. The Grade A2 stainless material is commonly selected for indoor mechanical rooms, poolside equipment enclosures, and marine-adjacent installations where carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely.

Key Features

• M4 x 0.70 right-hand metric thread for standard metric fastening
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2, for corrosion resistance
• Bright uncoated finish — no added plating to affect dimensional tolerances
• Conforms to DIN 934 and ISO 4032 fastener standards
• 7 millimeters across flats for use with standard metric wrenches
• 3.20 millimeters height suits compact, close-tolerance assemblies

Compatibility

Designed for use with M4 x 0.70 metric-threaded fasteners and bolts conforming to DIN and ISO metric standards.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard 7 millimeter metric wrench or socket. De-energize and isolate any equipment before accessing fastener locations in electrical or mechanical assemblies. Avoid over-torquing stainless steel nuts onto stainless bolts, as galling can occur — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound where recommended by equipment manufacturer guidelines. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for the trade and jurisdiction in which the fastener is being used.
