Value Collection 34280 Lock Nuts

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 34280 is a lock nut designed to secure threaded fastener assemblies against loosening caused by vibration, torque, or thermal cycling. Lock nuts are a staple fastener in mechanical and electrical enclosure assemblies, HVAC equipment mounting, plumbing fixture installations, and general trade applications. The 34280 is sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 25 units, making it suitable for stocking or job-lot procurement where consistent hardware is needed across multiple connections.

This lock nut is appropriate for use in light-duty to general mechanical assemblies where a standard threaded fastener requires positive retention. Typical applications include panel and bracket mounting, conduit fittings, equipment enclosures, and field-service hardware replacement across residential and light commercial trade work. Installers in HVAC, electrical, and plumbing trades routinely use lock nuts of this type when assembling or servicing threaded connections that must remain secure under service conditions.

• Provides positive thread retention to resist loosening from vibration and thermal movement
• Standard lock nut form factor compatible with threaded fastener assemblies across multiple trades
• Sold per unit with a minimum order quantity of 25 for efficient job-lot stocking

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or stocking lock nut for threaded fastener applications in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical assemblies. No specific model or system compatibility data was provided in the product information.

Installation Notes

Lock nuts are installed by qualified tradespeople using standard hand tools or wrenches appropriate to the fastener size. Always de-energize electrical systems and relieve system pressure before servicing any assembly that requires fastener work. Verify thread pitch and fastener diameter compatibility before installation. Follow applicable NEC, IPC, or IFGC guidelines as required for the specific trade application.
