Value Collection 317200BR Hex Nut 5/8-11 Grade 2 Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 317200BR is a 5/8-11 hex nut made from Grade 2 steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It features a right-hand thread cut to UNC standards and measures 15/16 inches across the flats with a height of 0.5469 inches. This fastener is used to secure bolted assemblies in general-purpose mechanical, structural, and trade applications. Installation requires a standard 15/16-inch wrench or socket. Grade 2 steel provides adequate strength for non-critical clamping and assembly work where high-tensile fasteners are not required.

This hex nut is suited for residential and light commercial construction, plumbing rough-in work, equipment mounting, and general mechanical assembly. It is commonly used wherever a standard UNC 5/8-11 threaded bolt or stud requires a mating nut. The uncoated bright finish is appropriate for indoor or dry-environment applications where corrosion resistance is not a primary concern.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC thread for compatibility with standard fractional-inch bolts and studs
• Grade 2 steel construction suitable for general-purpose fastening
• Right-hand thread direction per standard UNC specification
• 15/16-inch across-flats dimension fits standard wrench and socket sets
• Bright uncoated finish for clean appearance in dry-service environments

Compatibility

Designed for use with any 5/8-11 UNC threaded bolt or stud requiring a standard hex nut mating fastener in general-purpose mechanical or structural assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 15/16-inch open-end wrench, combination wrench, or socket. Verify thread engagement before applying torque to avoid cross-threading. For structural or load-bearing applications, consult applicable building codes to confirm that Grade 2 hardware meets the required strength specification. Do not substitute Grade 2 fasteners in joints specified for Grade 5 or Grade 8 hardware.
