Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener provides corrosion resistance suitable for general-purpose applications. The nylon insert creates interference with the mating thread to maintain clamping force without requiring adhesive or secondary locking hardware. At 0.25 inches in height with a 0.375-inch width across flats, it follows a right-hand UNF thread direction. Installation and removal require standard hex tooling. This nut is a common hardware item used by mechanical contractors, HVAC installers, electricians, and plumbers wherever vibration-resistant fastening is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis nylon insert hex lock nut is suited for light- to medium-duty fastening tasks across residential and commercial mechanical systems. Typical applications include equipment mounting, panel assembly, piping support brackets, and electrical enclosure hardware. The UNF thread standard makes it compatible with inch-series fastener assemblies. The zinc plating offers baseline protection in dry to moderately humid indoor environments. It is not rated for high-temperature zones where nylon insert integrity may be compromised.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNylon insert locking style resists loosening from vibration without adhesive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction for general-purpose structural fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in indoor and light-duty environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand UNF thread direction compatible with standard inch-series bolt assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeight of 0.25 inches and width across flats of 0.375 inches for compact fastener profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard hardware component for use with inch-series UNF threaded fastener assemblies in general mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson using a properly sized hex wrench or socket. Ensure the mating bolt and nut are free of debris before assembly to avoid cross-threading the nylon insert. Do not reuse nylon insert lock nuts after removal, as the insert loses clamping effectiveness once it has been seated and torqued. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer specifications for fastener torque requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Lock Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.004 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 34281\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51716925686066,"sku":"34281","price":538.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fd05c7d0ab977fd60d9604b804a23526.jpg?v=1788533405","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-34281-hex-lock-nut-nylon-insert-grade-2","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
