Value Collection 250079 Coupling Nut 7/16-14 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 250079 is a standard coupling nut used to join or extend two threaded rods or bolts sharing the same thread form. Made from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance, this coupling nut measures 1-3/4 inches overall length with a 5/8-inch width across flats. The 7/16-14 UNC right-hand thread is a common unified coarse thread found across a wide range of mechanical and structural fastener applications. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general trades use coupling nuts wherever threaded rod extensions or rod-to-bolt connections are required on the job.

This coupling nut is suited for light-duty mechanical assembly, threaded rod splicing, and equipment mounting applications in both residential and commercial settings. It is appropriate wherever a 7/16-14 UNC fastener connection is called for, including equipment support strut systems, pipe hangers, and general structural hardware installations. Sold individually, it fits into standard tool-and-supply inventories without minimum bulk commitment.

Key Features

• 7/16-14 UNC right-hand thread for compatibility with standard unified coarse fasteners
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate strength for light-to-medium duty applications
• Zinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance in dry or mildly humid environments
• 1-3/4 inch overall length gives sufficient thread engagement for rod joining or extension
• 5/8-inch width across flats accepts standard open-end, box, or socket wrenches

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or supplemental coupling nut for any application requiring a 7/16-14 UNC right-hand threaded fastener connection.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no specialized trade license but should follow applicable mechanical or structural codes for the given application. Ensure both mating threaded rods or bolts are clean, free of damage, and share the 7/16-14 UNC thread form before assembly. Use an appropriately sized open-end or combination wrench sized to the 5/8-inch flat. Do not apply excessive torque beyond what the Grade 2 material rating supports for the given joint design.
