Value Collection 444036BR Hex Nut 3/4-16 Grade L9 Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 444036BR is a 3/4-16 UNF hex nut machined from Grade L9 steel and finished with a zinc yellow dichromate, cadmium, and wax coating. Grade L9 designates a high-strength, fine-thread nut intended for demanding fastener assemblies where elevated load capacity and vibration resistance are required. The zinc yellow dichromate and cadmium finish provides corrosion protection suitable for industrial and mechanical environments. The wax coating aids in consistent torque and reduces galling during installation. This nut measures 1.125 inches across the flats and 0.641 inches in height, with a right-hand thread orientation. It is commonly installed by industrial mechanics, millwrights, and maintenance technicians.

This hex nut is suited for use in heavy-duty mechanical assemblies, industrial machinery, and structural fastener applications where fine-thread engagement and high clamping strength are specified. The 3/4-16 UNF thread size is standard in precision and high-load assemblies. The Grade L9 rating makes this nut appropriate for applications requiring superior proof load and tensile strength compared to standard SAE grades. It is not specified to meet military fastener standards.

Key Features

• Grade L9 steel construction for high-strength, high-load fastening applications
• 3/4-16 UNF right-hand thread for precision fine-thread engagement
• Zinc yellow dichromate, cadmium, and wax finish for corrosion resistance and installation lubricity
• 1.125 inches across flats for standard hex wrench or socket fitment
• 41/64 inch height provides substantial thread engagement depth
• UNSPSC Code 31161727 for procurement system compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/4-16 UNF hex nut for use in industrial and mechanical fastener assemblies requiring Grade L9 strength and a corrosion-resistant finish.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or technician familiar with high-strength fastener assemblies. Always degrease mating surfaces unless the wax coating is intended to serve as the thread lubricant for the specific torque specification in your assembly documentation. Use a properly sized socket or wrench matched to the 1.125-inch across-flats dimension. Verify that the mating bolt grade is compatible with Grade L9 nut requirements before finalizing the assembly.
