It features a right-hand UNC thread pattern and measures 9\/16 inches across flats and 7\/32 inches in height. Grade 316 stainless steel provides superior corrosion resistance compared to 304-series alloys, making this nut well-suited for environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or chlorides. The uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and allows straightforward inspection. Plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals commonly use this fastener when assembling or repairing equipment where corrosion resistance is a priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex nut is appropriate for use in residential and commercial applications where a standard 3\/8-16 UNC threaded fastener is required and corrosion resistance is a concern. Typical installation scenarios include pipe hangers, equipment mounting brackets, marine-adjacent mechanical systems, pool mechanical rooms, and chemical processing environments. The UNC thread standard ensures compatibility with standard 3\/8-16 threaded rod, bolts, and studs commonly found in trade applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 316 stainless steel construction for elevated corrosion resistance in wet or chemical-exposure environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC right-hand thread for compatibility with standard threaded fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9\/16-inch width across flats for use with standard hex wrenches and sockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish maintains tight dimensional tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/32-inch height suits standard load-bearing fastener assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with any standard 3\/8-16 UNC threaded bolt, stud, or threaded rod requiring a Grade 316 stainless steel hex nut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by hand-threading the nut onto the mating fastener, then tightening with an appropriate wrench or socket sized for a 9\/16-inch hex. Always ensure the mating bolt or stud is the same thread standard (UNC) and material grade compatible with the application. Power down or depressurize any system before replacing fasteners in mechanical assemblies. Follow applicable mechanical and plumbing codes for fastener specifications in pressure or structural applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\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: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright \/ Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inches (0.5625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.03 pounds\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: 1880\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693008027954,"sku":"1880","price":4565.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f1389bb0860514dee1ce9a38b91ec630.jpg?v=1788306134","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-1880-hex-nut-3-8-16-316-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
