This fastener combines a standard hex nut and a serrated external tooth lock washer into a single unit, providing vibration-resistant clamping without the need for a separate washer. The external teeth bite into the mating surface as the nut is tightened, resisting loosening under dynamic loads. At 0.0058 pounds per piece, it is well suited for light-duty electrical panel, enclosure, and equipment assembly applications where reliable thread retention is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis K-Lock nut is used in residential and commercial electrical, HVAC, and general mechanical assembly work where a compact, one-piece locking fastener is preferred. Typical install scenarios include securing components inside electrical enclosures, control panels, sheet metal assemblies, and HVAC equipment cabinets. The 12-24 UNC thread size is common in light-gauge metal applications. The zinc plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and protected environments. Installation is handled by electricians, HVAC technicians, and general assembly trades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne-piece design integrates hex nut and external tooth lock washer for simplified assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExternal tooth lock washer provides vibration resistance by biting into mating surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-24 UNC thread standard for compatibility with common light-gauge fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc plated steel finish for basic corrosion resistance in indoor or protected environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch washer diameter with 7\/16 inch width across flats for standard hex tool fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 12-24 UNC K-Lock replacement or assembly fastener for use in electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, and general sheet metal assemblies requiring a one-piece hex nut and external tooth lock washer combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed with a standard 7\/16 inch hex wrench or socket. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Apply consistent torque to allow the external teeth to seat properly against the mating surface without stripping the 12-24 threads. Power down and de-energize any electrical equipment before installing or removing fasteners inside live panels or enclosures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: K-Lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLock Washer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External Tooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWasher Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0058 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161727\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: R52001637\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51717291868466,"sku":"R52001637","price":717.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fa244dc4a559a44e23fe76a5550e9c33.jpg?v=1788537930","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-r52001637-k-lock-hex-nut-12-24-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
