Value Collection MSC-67472282 Hex Nut 1/2-20 Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-67472282 is a 1/2-20 UNF hex nut manufactured from Grade 8 steel with a black oxide finish. Grade 8 steel delivers high tensile strength for demanding fastener applications where standard hardware grades are insufficient. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and a consistent dark appearance. At 3/4 inches across the flats and 7/16 inches in height, this nut conforms to standard dimensional expectations for 1/2-20 UNF hardware. It features a right-hand thread direction and is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces. Mechanical contractors, industrial maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals working with high-strength fastener assemblies are the primary installers.

This hex nut is suited for high-load bolted joint applications across industrial, automotive, and mechanical assembly environments. The 1/2-20 UNF thread specification indicates a fine-thread pitch, which is commonly selected when greater thread engagement, finer torque adjustment, or resistance to vibration loosening is required compared to coarse-thread equivalents. It is intended for use with matching 1/2-20 Grade 8 bolts or studs. This nut does not meet military specifications and is appropriate for standard commercial and industrial applications.

Key Features

• Grade 8 steel construction for high tensile strength in demanding assemblies
• 1/2-20 UNF fine-thread specification for precise torque control and vibration resistance
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and low-reflectance appearance
• Right-hand thread direction per standard UNF convention
• 3/4 inches across flats fits standard 3/4-inch hex wrenches and sockets
• 7/16 inches height for compact bearing surface in tight joint spaces

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1/2-20 UNF Grade 8 bolts and threaded studs in standard commercial and industrial bolted joint applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard 3/4-inch hex wrench or socket. Follow applicable torque specifications for Grade 8 fastener assemblies as defined by the joint design engineer or relevant industry standards. Inspect mating threads for damage or contamination before assembly. Do not mix Grade 8 nuts with lower-grade fasteners in the same joint.
