Value Collection MSC-72047657 Hex Nut 5/8-11 Galvanized

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-72047657 is a 5/8-11 UNC hex nut manufactured from A563 Grade DH steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish. It is a standard heavy-hex-style fastener used to secure bolted connections across structural, mechanical, and industrial assemblies. The 5/8-11 thread designation indicates a 5/8-inch nominal diameter with 11 threads per inch on a Unified National Coarse pitch. The hot-dipped galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance suitable for outdoor and exposed environments. This nut weighs approximately 0.12 pounds per unit. Installation is performed by electricians, pipefitters, ironworkers, millwrights, and general trade mechanics wherever threaded fastener assemblies are required.

This hex nut is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial bolted connections. Typical applications include structural steel connections, equipment mounting, pipe flange assemblies, conduit support hardware, and general mechanical fastening where a 5/8-11 UNC threaded bolt or stud is present. The hot-dipped galvanized finish makes it a common choice for outdoor installations, wet locations, and corrosive environments where bare steel fasteners would be insufficient.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC right-hand thread for compatibility with standard 5/8-inch threaded fasteners
• A563 Grade DH steel construction for reliable mechanical strength
• Hot-dipped galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• 1-1/16 inches across flats, accommodating standard wrench and socket sizes
• 39/64-inch height for proper thread engagement depth
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed for use with any 5/8-11 UNC threaded bolt, stud, or threaded rod where a galvanized hex nut is required. Confirm thread standard and finish requirements before installation.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard 1-1/16-inch open-end wrench, box wrench, or socket. Ensure mating bolt or stud is also 5/8-11 UNC and that thread condition is clean and free of debris before engagement. Apply appropriate thread lubricant or anti-seize compound if required by the assembly specification. Follow applicable codes and torque guidelines for the specific joint type and load application.
