Grade 8 steel provides high tensile strength suitable for demanding fastener applications in mechanical, HVAC, and electrical enclosure assemblies. The zinc yellow dichromate finish delivers corrosion resistance while meeting standard trade expectations for fastener durability. Each nut features right-hand threading and measures 9\/16 inches across the flats with a height of 21\/64 inches. This package contains 100 nuts, making it a practical quantity for job-site or shop stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese hex nuts are used wherever a 3\/8-24 fine-thread fastener connection is required. The fine UNF thread pitch is common in precision mechanical assemblies, equipment mounting brackets, and structural connections that require tighter thread engagement than coarse UNF counterparts. Suitable for residential and commercial applications across HVAC equipment mounting, electrical panel work, and general trade use. The Grade 8 rating makes them appropriate for higher-load fastener joints where standard Grade 5 nuts would be undersized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 8 steel construction for high-strength fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-24 UNF right-hand thread for precise, tight-tolerance engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc yellow dichromate finish for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e9\/16 inches across flats — fits standard 9\/16-inch wrenches and sockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e21\/64-inch nut height for compact fastener stack-up\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e100-count package for job-site or shop restocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or stock fastener for any assembly requiring a 3\/8-24 UNF hex nut with Grade 8 strength rating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by any trade professional using a standard 9\/16-inch wrench or socket. Ensure mating bolts or studs are also rated Grade 8 or equivalent to maintain joint integrity. De-energize any electrical equipment and shut off mechanical systems before accessing fastener locations in live assemblies. Do not mix thread standards — confirm the mating fastener is UNF, not UNC, before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\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: Grade 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\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: KP86171\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698542444850,"sku":"KP86171","price":51.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c1482ad7a2fe20473320e4d317f703c2.jpg?v=1788364453","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-kp86171-hex-nut-3-8-24-grade-8-100-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
