Value Collection 52593431-100 9/16-18 Unf Steel Hex Nut

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 52593431-100 is a standard hex nut machined for 9/16-18 UNF (Unified Fine) threaded fastener applications. It is manufactured from steel and features a right-hand thread direction, making it compatible with the vast majority of threaded rod, bolt, and stud assemblies used across mechanical, structural, and industrial installations. The nut measures 7/8 inches across the flats and stands 0.496 inches high. The uncoated finish makes it suitable for use as-is or for post-installation treatment where corrosion protection is required. Plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general contractors install this type of fastener in a wide range of field and shop assembly work.

This hex nut is appropriate for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial assembly where a 9/16-18 UNF threaded connection is specified. Fine-thread fasteners like this nut are commonly used in applications requiring higher thread engagement strength or where vibration resistance is a factor, such as equipment mounting, mechanical assemblies, and structural connections requiring a tighter thread pitch than coarse-thread alternatives.

Key Features

• 9/16-18 UNF fine-thread specification for high thread engagement strength
• Right-hand thread direction — standard for the majority of threaded assemblies
• Steel construction for durability in mechanical and structural applications
• 7/8 inches across flats — accepts standard SAE wrench or socket
• 0.496 inches height for compact fastening in tight clearance situations
• Uncoated finish compatible with field-applied coatings or use in dry indoor environments

Compatibility

Designed for use with 9/16-18 UNF threaded bolts, studs, and threaded rod in standard right-hand thread assemblies across mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and general construction applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard 7/8-inch wrench or socket. Power down or de-energize any associated equipment before performing fastener work on live systems. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize compound as required by the assembly specification. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for torque requirements based on the specific application and bolt grade.
