Value Collection 91604 Hex Nut 8-32 Brass Uncoated

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 91604 is a brass hex nut with an 8-32 UNC thread designed for use in mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, panel fabrication, and general fastening applications. The nut features a right-hand thread direction and an uncoated bright finish that exposes the natural brass surface. At 0.3438 inches across the flats and 0.125 inches in height, this is a compact, standard-profile nut suited for close-tolerance work. Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity, making it a common choice where steel hardware would corrode or introduce interference. Licensed tradespeople and assembly technicians typically select this nut for HVAC control panel work, low-voltage electrical enclosures, and instrumentation mounting.

This nut is well suited to residential and light commercial applications where 8-32 machine screw fastening is required. Common use cases include securing terminal blocks, panel components, standoffs, and enclosure hardware. The bright, uncoated brass finish makes it appropriate for interior applications and environments where contact with dissimilar metals or harsh chemicals is limited. It meets ANSI ASME B18.2.2 dimensional standards, confirming a consistent fit with any 8-32 UNC machine screw within that specification.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC right-hand thread for standard machine screw compatibility
• Brass construction offers natural corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity
• Bright uncoated finish exposes raw brass surface for visual inspection and conductivity

• Meets ANSI ASME B18.2.2 fastener dimensional standard
• Low individual weight at 0.005 pounds suits high-count assembly applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or assembly-use hex nut compatible with any 8-32 UNC machine screw meeting ANSI ASME B18.2.2 dimensional requirements.

Installation Notes

Install and tighten with a standard 11/32-inch hex wrench or nut driver. De-energize any electrical panel or enclosure before installing hardware in live assemblies. Avoid overtightening brass fasteners, as brass is a softer material than steel and threads can strip under excessive torque. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per order.
