Machined to 8-32 UNC thread specifications with right-hand thread direction, this nut is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance. It measures 5\/8 inches overall length with a 5\/16 inch width across flats. Coupling nuts are commonly used in mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, HVAC control panel work, and plumbing fixture installations where threaded rod or stud extension is required. Licensed tradespeople and experienced technicians install these as part of larger fastening systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling nut suits light-duty to medium-duty applications requiring a reliable threaded connection between two male-threaded components. At the 8-32 UNC thread size, it is commonly found in control panel assembly, instrument mounting, electrical box work, and equipment fabrication. The zinc plating provides a surface barrier suitable for dry or mildly humid indoor environments. Sold individually, this nut fits standard fastener applications where an 8-32 UNC thread specification is called out on the work order or equipment drawing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-32 UNC right-hand thread for compatibility with standard inch-series fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction provides reliable tensile strength for light-to-medium duty use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch overall length accommodates standard stud extension tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16 inch width across flats fits common open-end and box wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or stock coupling nut for applications specifying an 8-32 UNC thread, Grade 2 steel, zinc-plated finish in a 5\/8 inch overall length configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoupling nuts are installed by hand-threading onto mating male fasteners and then tightening with an appropriately sized wrench. De-energize any electrical systems before working in panels or enclosures where these fasteners are used. Do not use impact tools on small-diameter coupling nuts, as this can strip the threads or crack the nut body. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer guidelines when fastening within electrical enclosures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-32\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: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\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: 250175\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51701549662514,"sku":"250175","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a0088e97f8020ba5c307dc7918a13f31.jpg?v=1788401213","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-250175-coupling-nut-8-32-unc-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
