Value Collection 250178 Coupling Nut 10-24 Unc Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 250178 is a standard coupling nut used to join two externally threaded fasteners end-to-end along a common axis. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance, this hex coupling nut features a 10-24 UNC right-hand thread and measures 3/4 inch overall length with a 5/16 inch width across flats. It is a commonly stocked fastener used across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical assembly work wherever a threaded rod splice or extended fastening point is required.

Coupling nuts of this type are found in a wide range of trade applications including HVAC equipment mounting, conduit and pipe support rod extensions, electrical panel and enclosure assembly, and general structural fastening. The 10-24 UNC thread is a standard coarse-thread form compatible with the full range of 10-24 threaded rods and bolts commonly used in light commercial and residential installations. Suitable for interior applications where moderate corrosion exposure is expected.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC right-hand thread for standard coarse-thread compatibility
• Grade 2 steel construction for general-purpose mechanical strength
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion protection for interior use
• 3/4 inch overall length accommodates standard rod-to-rod splicing
• 5/16 inch width across flats for use with standard hex wrenches or nut drivers

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-24 UNC coupling nut suitable for use with any 10-24 UNC threaded rod, bolt, or stud conforming to standard coarse-thread specifications.

Installation Notes

Coupling nuts are installed by hand-threading onto mating fasteners and tightening with an appropriately sized wrench or nut driver. Ensure both mating fasteners are free of debris and thread damage before assembly. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for the specific trade application. Do not use in applications exceeding the load or environmental ratings appropriate for Grade 2 zinc-plated steel fasteners.
