It features a right-hand thread direction and measures 9\/16 inches across the flats with a height of 21\/64 inches. Grade 8 steel delivers high tensile strength suitable for demanding fastening applications in mechanical, structural, and equipment assembly work. The zinc yellow dichromate finish provides a secondary layer of protection against oxidation. This nut is sold in a package quantity of 100, making it a practical stock item for service trucks, shop inventory, or job-site fastener kits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex nut is appropriate for use in residential and commercial mechanical assemblies, equipment mounting, structural connections, and general trade fastening tasks that require a high-strength, UNC-threaded fastener. Typical applications include HVAC equipment frames, electrical panel mounting, plumbing fixture supports, and other trade installations where Grade 8 strength is specified. The right-hand thread is the standard direction for most mechanical assemblies, and the 3\/8-16 thread size is among the most common in trade work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 8 steel construction for high tensile strength and load capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC right-hand thread — standard pitch for broad compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc yellow dichromate finish provides corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9\/16-inch width across flats fits standard hex sockets and wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e21\/64-inch nut height suits tight clearance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged in quantities of 100 for efficient stocking and field use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 3\/8-16 UNC threaded fasteners including bolts, studs, and threaded rod in standard right-hand thread assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall using a 9\/16-inch hex socket or open-end wrench. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before assembly. Follow applicable torque specifications from the equipment manufacturer or relevant structural codes — do not rely on feel alone when fastening Grade 8 hardware in load-bearing applications. Inspect threads for damage before installation and discard any nut with crossed or stripped threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc Yellow Dichromate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inches (0.5625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21\/64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: KP86161\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689674637618,"sku":"KP86161","price":31.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a17ab68f3e31bc017e413ddee2343667.jpg?v=1788262805","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-kp86161-hex-nut-3-8-16-grade-8-100-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
