Value Collection CLNFI21000-025BX Hex Lock Nut 1-14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION CLNFI21000-025BX is a two-way distorted thread hex lock nut designed to resist loosening under vibration and dynamic loads. Made from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance, this nut measures 55/64 inches in height with a 1-1/2 inch width across flats. The 1-14 thread size indicates a 1-inch nominal diameter with 14 threads per inch, conforming to UNF thread standards. Right-hand thread direction follows standard installation practice. This fastener is suited for mechanical assembly work across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general industrial applications where a reliable locking solution is needed without a separate locking element.

This hex lock nut is appropriate for use in both residential and light commercial mechanical installations. The distorted thread locking style creates interference between mating threads, providing resistance to vibration-induced loosening without adhesives or secondary hardware. It is commonly installed by maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors assembling structural or equipment-mounting connections that require thread retention under cyclical or vibrational stress.

Key Features

• Distorted thread locking style resists loosening under vibration without additional locking hardware
• Two-way lock nut design allows installation from either direction
• 1-14 thread size conforms to UNF fastener standards
• Grade 2 steel construction for standard-duty mechanical applications
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion protection
• Right-hand thread direction follows standard assembly practice

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNF-thread replacement or new-installation hex lock nut for 1-14 threaded fastener applications in mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and general industrial assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical contractors or maintenance technicians using a standard wrench sized to the 1-1/2 inch across-flats dimension. De-energize or shut down any equipment before fastener service on live assemblies. Distorted thread lock nuts are single-use by design and should not be reused after removal, as the locking interference may be reduced. Follow applicable mechanical and building codes for fastener specification and torque requirements in structural applications.
