Value Collection C6072 Hex Nut 7/16-14 Grade 2 Zinc-plated

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C6072 is a 7/16-14 hex nut manufactured from Grade 2 carbon steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance. It features a right-hand thread pattern and conforms to the Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standard. The nut measures 11/16 inches across flats and 3/8 inches in height, making it a standard fastener suited to general mechanical and structural assembly work. Plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople use this size nut in a wide range of equipment mounting, pipe support, and panel assembly applications.

This hex nut is used in light- to medium-duty fastening applications across residential and commercial trades. It is a common choice for equipment mounting brackets, conduit hangers, pipe supports, ductwork hardware, and general structural connections where Grade 2 strength is sufficient. The zinc plating provides a measure of protection against moisture exposure in typical indoor and mildly corrosive environments. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.
