Value Collection 317100PR Hex Nut 3/8-16 Grade 2 Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 317100PR is a 3/8-16 hex nut manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a bright, uncoated finish. This standard fastener features a right-hand UNC thread and is used to secure bolted assemblies across a wide range of mechanical, structural, and utility applications. At 9/16 inches across the flats and 0.3281 inches in height, it fits standard 3/8-16 threaded fasteners. Licensed tradespeople and general contractors reach for Grade 2 hex nuts when tensile demands fall within mid-range load requirements and corrosion protection is not a primary concern.

This hex nut is suited for general-purpose fastening in residential construction, light commercial work, HVAC equipment mounting, plumbing support brackets, and electrical enclosure assembly. It is compatible with any 3/8-16 UNC threaded bolt or stud. The bright, uncoated finish makes it appropriate for interior or dry-environment use where surface treatment is not required. This part is sold individually but is subject to a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.
