Value Collection 31214 Hex Nut 7/16-20 Unf Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 31214 is a 7/16-20 UNF hex nut machined from steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. It features right-hand threading to the UNF standard, measuring 11/16 inches across the flats and 3/8 inches in height. This fastener is used wherever a standard 7/16-20 unified fine thread nut is required in mechanical assemblies, maintenance applications, or equipment repair. Installation requires only a standard wrench or socket matched to the 11/16-inch flat-to-flat dimension.

This hex nut is suited for general-purpose industrial and mechanical applications where a fine-thread, steel fastener is specified. Fine-thread UNF fasteners provide greater thread engagement and holding strength per length of engagement compared to coarse-thread equivalents, making them a common choice in precision assemblies, vibration-prone environments, and applications where controlled preload is important. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• 7/16-20 UNF right-hand internal thread for standard fine-thread fastener applications
• Steel construction for durability in mechanical and industrial use
• Zinc-plated finish provides baseline corrosion protection
• 11/16 inches across flats for wrench engagement
• 3/8 inches height — standard hex nut profile

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 7/16-20 UNF hex nut for use with any 7/16-20 UNF threaded bolt or stud in general mechanical, industrial, or equipment assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard open-end, box, or socket wrench sized to 11/16 inches across the flats. Ensure mating bolt or stud threads are clean and free of debris before assembly. Do not exceed recommended torque for the fastener grade and material being joined. For structural or safety-critical applications, consult applicable engineering standards for proper torque values and fastener class requirements.
