Value Collection KP66148 Hex Lock Nut 3/4-16 Grade C 25 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP66148 is a 3/4-16 UNF hex lock nut with a distorted-thread locking style, designed to resist loosening under vibration and dynamic loads. Made from Grade C steel with a zinc-plated and waxed finish, it delivers corrosion resistance and smooth thread engagement during installation. Right-hand thread direction follows standard UNF fastener convention. This nut is installed by mechanics, maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and general tradespeople wherever a reliable, reusable locking fastener is required. Sold in packs of 25.

This hex lock nut is suited for mechanical assemblies, equipment mounting, structural connections, and general industrial maintenance applications. The distorted-thread design creates an interference fit between the nut and mating bolt threads, eliminating the need for additional locking hardware such as split washers or thread-locking compounds. The zinc-with-wax finish provides mild corrosion protection appropriate for interior and sheltered exterior environments. It is a standard inch-measurement fastener and fits any 3/4-16 UNF threaded fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand and standard hex wrench or socket. Power down or de-energize any equipment before servicing fastened assemblies. Clean mating threads before installation to ensure proper seating of the distorted-thread locking feature. Do not reuse distorted-thread lock nuts in safety-critical applications after removal, as the locking interference may be reduced after the first installation cycle.
