Value Collection MSC-67472969 Hex Nut 5/16-24 Grade 5

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-67472969 is a 5/16-24 UNF hex nut manufactured from SAE J995 Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish. It measures 0.5 inches across flats and 0.2656 inches in height, with a hardness rating of 32 HRC. The right-hand thread pattern and zinc coating make it suitable for general fastening applications where moderate strength and corrosion resistance are required. Each nut conforms to ANSI ASME B18.2.2 dimensional standards. Licensed tradespeople and assembly technicians working on mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and structural applications will find this a reliable standard-duty fastener.

This hex nut is intended for use in light to medium-duty fastening applications across residential and commercial trades. It fits 5/16-24 UNF threaded bolts and studs and is appropriate for use wherever a Grade 5 steel nut is specified. The zinc-plated surface provides baseline corrosion protection for indoor and moderate-exposure environments. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, it is suited for bulk stocking in service vehicles, shop inventory, or job-site supply kits.
