Value Collection HHNXX01600-010BX Hex Nut M16x2 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HHNXX01600-010BX is an M16 x 2 hex nut manufactured from Grade 316 Austenitic Grade A4 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. This metric hex nut features a right-hand thread pattern and measures 24 mm across the flats with a 16 mm height. It conforms to the NFE 25407 fastener standard, making it appropriate for applications requiring dimensional and material traceability. The 316 stainless steel alloy offers elevated resistance to corrosion, including chloride-rich and marine environments, which is why it is commonly specified by maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors working on process equipment, plumbing systems, and coastal or chemical-exposure installations.

This hex nut is suited for use in residential, commercial, and industrial applications where metric fasteners and corrosion-resistant materials are required. Typical install scenarios include pipe flange assemblies, equipment mounting on HVAC and plumbing systems, marine hardware, food-processing equipment, and outdoor structural connections. The M16 x 2 thread size is a standard coarse metric pitch, compatible with M16 x 2 threaded rod, bolts, and studs. It is packaged and sold individually.

Key Features

• Grade 316 Austenitic Grade A4 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance in harsh and marine environments
• M16 x 2 right-hand thread in standard metric coarse pitch
• 24 mm width across flats for use with standard metric wrenches and sockets
• Bright, uncoated finish — no plating or coating that could introduce dimensional variation or delaminate under load
• Conforms to NFE 25407 fastener standard for dimensional compliance
• Lightweight at approximately 0.009 pounds per unit

Compatibility

Designed for use with M16 x 2 metric coarse-thread bolts, studs, and threaded rod. Suitable as an OEM-style or replacement hex nut in any assembly calling for an M16 x 2 Grade 316 stainless steel fastener meeting the NFE 25407 standard.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical contractors, pipefitters, or maintenance technicians using standard metric wrenches or sockets sized for a 24 mm across-flats hex nut. Verify that the mating fastener thread class and pitch match M16 x 2 before assembly to avoid cross-threading. De-energize or shut off any pressurized or live systems before replacing fasteners in active assemblies. Apply anti-seize compound when installing stainless steel fasteners against stainless steel bolts or studs to reduce the risk of galling.
