Value Collection -32291-7/8 Hex Jam Nut Steel Unc 15 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -32291-7/8 is a steel hex jam nut designed for fastening applications requiring a low-profile locking solution. Hex jam nuts are thinner than standard hex nuts and are typically used in pairs or against a full nut to lock a fastener in place and prevent loosening under vibration or load. This nut follows UNC (Unified National Coarse) thread standards with a right-hand thread direction. It is installed by mechanical maintenance technicians, industrial assemblers, and trade professionals working with threaded fastener assemblies. This listing includes a package of 15 nuts.

Hex jam nuts in UNC thread are common in light industrial, mechanical, and general construction applications. They are used wherever a thin locking nut is needed to secure a bolt or threaded rod, including equipment mounting, bracket assemblies, and vibration-prone mechanical connections. The steel construction provides solid tensile strength for general-duty fastener work across a wide range of shop and field applications.

Key Features

• Steel construction for reliable strength in general fastening applications
• UNC (Unified National Coarse) thread standard for broad compatibility with standard inch-system fasteners
• Right-hand thread direction for standard installation
• Low-profile hex jam nut design for use as a locking or jam nut in paired configurations
• Sold in a package of 15 nuts per order

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose UNC right-hand thread hex jam nut suitable for use with standard inch-system threaded fasteners in light industrial and mechanical assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Hex jam nuts are typically installed by hand and tightened with a standard open-end or combination wrench. When used as a locking nut, thread the jam nut on first, then thread the full nut against it and tighten the two nuts against each other to lock the assembly. Ensure mating fasteners are the same thread standard and pitch before installation. No power tools are required for standard jam nut applications.
