Value Collection 87NFP Hex Nut 7/8-9 Grade 2 Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 87NFP is a 7/8-9 hex nut manufactured from SAE J995 Grade 2 steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It features a right-hand UN thread and measures 1-5/16 inches across the flats with a height of 0.75 inches. Hardness is rated at 68 HRB, meeting ANSI ASME B18.2.2 fastener standards. This nut is suited for general mechanical and structural assembly work and is installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, pipefitters, and other trade professionals requiring a standard imperial hex nut in Grade 2 steel.

This hex nut is appropriate for general-purpose bolted connections in residential, commercial, and light industrial applications. It is used wherever a 7/8-9 UN thread fastener is required, including structural framing, equipment mounting, and mechanical assembly. The uncoated finish makes it suitable for dry indoor environments or applications where a supplemental coating or plating will be applied after installation.
