Value Collection MP39606 Hex Nut 9/16-12 Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP39606 is a 9/16-12 UNC hex nut manufactured from Grade 8 steel with a zinc yellow dichromate finish. Grade 8 steel delivers high tensile and proof-load strength, making this nut suitable for heavy-duty bolted connections subject to vibration, shear, or elevated clamping force. The zinc yellow dichromate coating provides corrosion resistance over bare steel while meeting standard fastener finishing practices. This nut features a right-hand thread and measures 7/8 inch across flats with a height of 31/64 inch, fitting standard 9/16-12 hex bolts and threaded rod.

This hex nut is used across mechanical, structural, and equipment assembly applications where a high-strength fastener is required. Typical install scenarios include HVAC equipment mounting, structural brackets, fan assemblies, compressor base frames, and general mechanical assemblies where Grade 8 strength is specified. It is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 25 units, making it suited for shop stock, fleet service, or job-site replenishment.

Key Features

• Grade 8 steel construction for high proof load and tensile strength
• Zinc yellow dichromate finish for corrosion resistance
• 9/16-12 UNC right-hand thread conforms to standard unified coarse thread specification
• 7/8 inch across flats fits standard hex sockets and wrenches
• 31/64 inch height provides full thread engagement on matching fasteners

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC hex nut for use with 9/16-12 threaded bolts, cap screws, and threaded rod in Grade 8 applications across mechanical and structural assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 7/8 inch hex socket or open-end wrench. Always match nut grade to bolt grade to maintain rated joint strength — do not pair Grade 8 nuts with lower-grade fasteners in load-bearing applications. Torque to the fastener manufacturer or applicable code specification for the joint type. Inspect threads for damage or contamination before assembly.
