Value Collection 94024 Hex Jam Nut 5/8-11 Unc Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 94024 is a 5/8-11 UNC hex jam nut manufactured from stainless steel for corrosion-resistant fastening applications. This right-hand threaded nut measures 15/16 inches across the flats and 3/8 inches in height, fitting the standard jam nut profile used to lock a primary nut in place against a mating surface. The uncoated stainless steel construction makes it suitable for environments where rust resistance and material compatibility are critical. Sold in a package of 25, this nut is a common consumable for plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople who need reliable locking hardware in corrosive or wet service conditions.

This hex jam nut is appropriate for use in residential and commercial mechanical installations where a thin secondary nut is required to secure threaded rod assemblies, hanger rods, equipment mounting studs, or piping support hardware. Its stainless steel composition makes it well suited for outdoor, wet, or chemically active environments where carbon steel fasteners would degrade. The 5/8-11 UNC thread size is a widely used coarse-thread standard found across plumbing, HVAC, and structural support applications.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or stock hex jam nut for 5/8-11 UNC threaded rod, bolts, and studs commonly found in HVAC hanger assemblies, plumbing support systems, and general mechanical installations.

Installation Notes

Hex jam nuts are installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, or general tradespeople using standard open-end or adjustable wrenches. The jam nut is threaded onto the fastener first and then tightened against a primary nut to create a locking pair — do not substitute a jam nut for a full-height nut in primary load-bearing applications. Always verify thread engagement depth meets the requirements of the applicable mechanical or structural code before torquing. Shut down and de-energize any equipment before servicing fasteners on mechanical systems.
