Built from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener provides reliable corrosion resistance in typical indoor and light-duty outdoor service conditions. The nylon insert compresses against the bolt threads to create a locking friction fit that holds position without deforming the fastener body. This package contains 100 nuts, making it practical for job-site restocking, maintenance carts, or production assembly. HVAC, plumbing, and electrical tradespeople reach for this size when securing equipment panels, mounting brackets, and mechanical assemblies that experience routine vibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis lock nut is suited for light to medium fastening applications across residential and commercial trades. The 3\/8-24 UNF thread is a fine-pitch standard used on mechanical equipment frames, fan and blower assemblies, and panel hardware. Right-hand thread direction matches standard installation tooling. The zinc-plated finish is appropriate for dry or mildly humid environments. This nut is sold in a 100-piece package with a minimum order quantity of 1 package, making it efficient for both single-job purchases and shop inventory replenishment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon insert locking style resists loosening under vibration without damaging mating threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction provides adequate strength for light to medium load fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish adds corrosion resistance for dry and mildly humid service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-24 UNF right-hand thread for compatibility with standard fine-pitch fastener systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100-piece package quantity supports job-site and shop inventory needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9\/16 inch width across flats fits standard 9\/16 inch wrenches and sockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 3\/8-24 UNF right-hand threaded bolts and studs in Grade 2 or equivalent steel fastener applications across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and removal should be performed with a correctly sized 9\/16 inch wrench or socket to avoid rounding the flats. Nylon insert lock nuts are generally rated for single use  -  once the nylon insert has been fully engaged and removed, the locking effectiveness is reduced and replacement is recommended. De-energize and lock out equipment before accessing any fastener on powered mechanical assemblies. Follow applicable codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines when selecting fastener grades for structural or pressure-bearing connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-24 UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Flange Lock Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon 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: Grade 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Points\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.650 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 34351-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67659403034930,"sku":"34351-1","price":23.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6502cabd76ea1e522f354f922c201bf9.jpg?v=1790468070","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-34351-1-hex-lock-nut-3-8-24-zinc-plated-100-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
