Value Collection KP80363 Nylon U Nut 10 Screw 25 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP80363 is a nylon U nut designed to secure number 10 screws in panel and sheet metal applications where a floating, push-on fastener is needed. The U nut accepts a maximum material thickness of 3mm and features a 4mm center-to-edge measurement for consistent positioning along panel flanges. Constructed from nylon with a black phosphate finish, this fastener resists corrosion and reduces the risk of galvanic interaction in mixed-metal assemblies. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and equipment installers commonly use U nuts when securing control panels, enclosures, and access covers where conventional nut installation is impractical. This item is sold in a package of 25 units.

U nuts of this type are used in residential and light commercial applications wherever a push-on clip nut is preferred over a welded or loose nut. Typical installation scenarios include electrical enclosure panels, HVAC unit access covers, sheet metal ductwork components, and equipment cabinetry. The nylon construction makes this fastener suitable for low-torque, non-structural clamping tasks where plastic-safe hardware is specified. The black phosphate finish blends with dark panel surfaces common in electrical and HVAC control assemblies.

Key Features

• Accepts number 10 screws with a maximum material thickness of 3mm
• 4mm center-to-edge dimension for accurate flange positioning
• Nylon construction resists corrosion and prevents galvanic reaction
• Black phosphate finish for low-visibility installation on dark panels
• Push-on U nut design speeds installation without loose hardware
• Packaged in quantities of 25 for service and maintenance use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or service stock U nut for number 10 screw applications in electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, and sheet metal assemblies requiring a push-on clip nut fastener.

Installation Notes

U nuts are installed by pressing the clip onto the panel flange before the mating screw is driven. Ensure the panel or sheet metal thickness does not exceed 3mm to maintain proper clamping. No special tools are required, but care should be taken not to over-torque the mating screw, as nylon U nuts are intended for light clamping duty only. Power down any electrical equipment before servicing enclosures or panels where these fasteners will be installed.
