Value Collection 5607 Hex Nut 10-24 18-8 Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 5607 is a 10-24 UNC hex nut machined from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It features a right-hand thread and measures 3/8 inches across the flats with a 1/8-inch height. The 18-8 stainless grade provides solid corrosion resistance in wet, chemical-exposure, and general industrial environments. This is a standard fastener used across HVAC equipment assemblies, plumbing fixtures, electrical enclosures, pool equipment frames, and general mechanical applications wherever a reliable, corrosion-resistant threaded connection is required. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians install these nuts in both new construction and service work.

The 5607 hex nut is suited for residential and light commercial applications where stainless steel hardware is specified to resist rust and oxidation. Common install scenarios include securing panels on HVAC air handlers, anchoring plumbing bracket assemblies, and fastening electrical enclosure hardware. The UNC thread standard ensures broad compatibility with standard inch-series threaded fasteners. This nut is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per purchase.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments
• 10-24 UNC right-hand thread for use with standard inch-series bolts and screws
• Bright, uncoated finish — no surface treatment that can chip or degrade
• 3/8-inch across flats fits standard hex drivers and wrenches
• 1/8-inch height — compact profile for tight clearance applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with any 10-24 UNC-threaded bolt, screw, or stud where an 18-8 stainless steel hex nut is specified.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard 3/8-inch hex wrench or nut driver. Ensure the mating fastener thread class and material are compatible before assembly to prevent galling, which can occur when stainless fasteners are run together dry at speed. Apply a small amount of anti-seize compound to reduce galling risk on stainless-to-stainless assemblies. Torque to the requirements of the assembly drawing or equipment manufacturer specification.
