Value Collection R52001624 Hex Lock Nut 7/16-14 Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52001624 is a 7/16-14 UNC hex lock nut with a nylon insert locking mechanism, manufactured from Grade 8 steel with a zinc yellow dichromate finish. The nylon insert deforms around the mating thread when torqued, creating a prevailing-torque lock that resists vibration-induced loosening without the need for additional locking compounds or washers. At 29/64 inches in height with a 5/8-inch width across the flats, this nut fits standard 7/16-14 UNC fastener assemblies. The zinc yellow dichromate coating provides baseline corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial and mechanical applications.

This hex lock nut is suited for structural, mechanical, and equipment-assembly applications where vibration resistance is required. Right-hand thread direction follows standard UNC convention, making it compatible with typical 7/16-14 bolts and studs used in automotive, agricultural, construction, and industrial equipment. Trade professionals and MRO buyers will find this nut appropriate for any assembly requiring a reliable, reusable prevailing-torque fastener solution. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• Nylon insert locking style provides prevailing-torque resistance without adhesives or deformed-thread designs
• Grade 8 steel construction for high tensile and proof load capacity
• Zinc yellow dichromate finish for corrosion protection in general service environments
• 7/16-14 UNC right-hand thread conforms to Unified National Coarse fastener standards
• Width across flats of 5/8 inches fits standard 7/16 hex wrench and socket tooling

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC prevailing-torque replacement or assembly nut for 7/16-14 threaded bolts and studs in industrial, mechanical, and equipment applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed using a properly sized 5/8-inch hex wrench or socket. Nylon insert lock nuts are designed for single-use or limited-reuse applications — inspect the nylon insert for wear or deformation before reusing on critical joints. De-energize or isolate any equipment before fastener service. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque specifications and relevant industry standards for the assembly being serviced.
