Value Collection 250096 Coupling Nut 5/8-11 Unc Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 250096 is a standard coupling nut designed to join two externally threaded rods, studs, or bolts along a common axis. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance, this nut carries a 5/8-11 UNC thread specification and measures 2.125 inches overall length. The 13/16-inch width across flats allows engagement with standard combination or box-end wrenches. Right-hand thread direction follows conventional fastener practice. This coupling nut is a general-purpose hardware component installed by mechanics, pipefitters, millwrights, and maintenance tradespeople across a wide range of structural and mechanical assembly applications.

This coupling nut is suited for use in light-duty structural connections, threaded rod extensions, anchor bolt assemblies, and mechanical linkage systems where standard UNC fastener specifications are called out. It is appropriate for indoor and sheltered outdoor applications where moderate corrosion protection is acceptable. Typical uses include joining all-thread rod sections in HVAC hangers, plumbing support strut systems, and general industrial equipment mounting.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC right-hand thread for compatibility with standard inch-series threaded rod and bolts
• 2.125-inch overall length provides extended thread engagement for load transfer across joined rods
• Grade 2 steel construction meets general-purpose structural fastener requirements
• Zinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered installations
• 13/16-inch width across flats fits standard combination wrenches and sockets

Compatibility

Designed for use with 5/8-11 UNC threaded rod, studs, and bolts conforming to standard inch-series UNC fastener specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand-threading the nut onto two opposing threaded rods or fasteners, then tightening with a wrench to the appropriate torque per the fastener specification or project engineering requirements. Confirm thread engagement length is sufficient for the load before final tightening. Inspect threads on mating components for damage or contamination before assembly. Follow applicable mechanical or structural codes for the specific application.
