Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-52593480 is a 7/8-9 UNC hex nut machined from Grade 5 steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It features a right-hand thread pattern and measures 1.3125 inches across the flats with a height of 0.75 inches. This standard fastener is used to secure threaded assemblies in mechanical, structural, and industrial applications where Grade 5 steel strength is required. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople reach for this nut when assembling equipment supports, pipe hangers, conduit racks, and similar hardware in both residential and commercial settings.

This hex nut is suited for general-purpose fastening tasks that call for a 7/8-9 UNC thread pitch. It fits standard 7/8-inch threaded rod and bolt stock. The uncoated finish is appropriate for interior applications or where a separate coating, plating, or treatment will be applied in the field. It is commonly used in mechanical rooms, equipment pads, structural supports, and utility installations across HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades.
