Value Collection 88525159 Hex Nut 10-32 Unf Grade 2 Zinc-plated 75pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 88525159 is a 10-32 UNF hex nut manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish. These fasteners feature a right-hand thread pattern and measure 0.375 inches across the flats with a height of 0.125 inches. The zinc plating provides a basic corrosion barrier suitable for general-purpose indoor and light-duty fastening applications. Each package contains 75 nuts, making this an efficient restocking option for maintenance shops, assembly lines, and service technicians who regularly work with 10-32 threaded hardware.

These hex nuts are suited for use in light-duty mechanical assemblies, electrical panel work, HVAC equipment fastening, and general maintenance tasks wherever a 10-32 UNF thread is specified. The standard hex profile accepts common hand tools and power drivers, supporting high-volume assembly workflows. Grade 2 steel is appropriate for applications that do not require high-tensile or military-specification fasteners.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF thread size for compatibility with standard unified fine-thread fasteners
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate strength for general-purpose fastening
• Zinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty use
• Right-hand thread direction — standard installation rotation
• 3/8-inch (0.375 inches) across-flats dimension fits standard 3/8-inch hex tooling
• Package of 75 nuts supports bulk restocking and high-frequency use

Compatibility

Designed for use with any 10-32 UNF threaded bolt, screw, or stud in general-purpose mechanical, electrical, and light industrial assemblies. Does not meet military specifications.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a 3/8-inch wrench or socket driver. Ensure the mating fastener is also 10-32 UNF to avoid cross-threading. Do not use in high-tensile or safety-critical structural applications where Grade 5 or Grade 8 fasteners are required. Follow applicable assembly standards and torque guidelines specified by the equipment manufacturer for the given joint design.
