Value Collection R63092848 Brass Acorn Nut 6-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63092848 is a standard acorn nut machined from brass, designed to cap and protect exposed threaded fasteners while providing a finished, dome-shaped appearance. Threaded to the 6-32 UNC specification with a right-hand thread direction, this nut measures 5/16 inches across the flats and 1/4 inch in overall height. The uncoated brass construction offers natural corrosion resistance without additional surface treatment. This type of fastener is commonly installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general trade professionals wherever a clean terminal finish or thread protection is required on a machine screw assembly.

This acorn nut is suited for light-duty fastening applications across residential and commercial settings. Its 6-32 UNC thread size makes it a common fit for small panel assemblies, electrical enclosures, cover plates, and equipment housings where a standard machine screw thread is used. The brass material makes it appropriate for applications requiring non-ferrous hardware, such as grounding assemblies, instrumentation panels, and environments where low magnetic permeability or mild corrosion resistance is a factor.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread size with right-hand thread direction for broad machine screw compatibility
• Brass material provides natural corrosion resistance and non-magnetic properties
• Standard acorn nut profile caps and protects exposed thread ends
• Uncoated finish — no plating to chip, flake, or interfere with electrical contact
• 5/16 inch width across flats fits standard hex tooling
• 1/4 inch overall height for low-profile installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard acorn nut replacement for any assembly using a 6-32 UNC machine screw thread.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard 5/16 inch hex wrench or nut driver. Power down or de-energize any electrical assembly before installing or removing fasteners on live equipment. Do not overtighten brass hardware, as brass is softer than steel and susceptible to thread stripping under excessive torque. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer guidelines when using fasteners in electrical enclosures.
