Acorn nuts, also called cap nuts, feature a domed top that covers the exposed end of a threaded fastener, protecting the thread and providing a finished appearance. This nut uses a 3\/8-16 UNC right-hand thread and measures 5\/8 inches across the flats with an overall height of 27\/64 inches. The brass base material offers natural corrosion resistance, while the nickel plating adds a secondary layer of surface protection. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors reach for acorn nuts when a clean termination on exposed hardware is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis acorn nut is suited for use in residential and light commercial applications where a standard UNC thread pattern is specified. Typical install scenarios include panel work, fixture mounting, equipment enclosures, and any fastening point where thread-end protection or a finished cap appearance is needed. The nickel-plated brass construction makes it a practical choice in environments with moderate moisture exposure, such as mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and outdoor enclosures with cover protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard acorn dome profile covers and protects exposed thread ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass base material provides inherent corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNickel plated finish adds a secondary layer of surface protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC right-hand thread for broad fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch width across flats fits standard wrenches and sockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOverall height of 27\/64 inches for compact clearance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or supplemental acorn nut for any application specifying a 3\/8-16 UNC right-hand thread with a 5\/8 inch hex drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcorn nuts are installed by hand-threading onto a matching 3\/8-16 UNC male fastener, then tightening with a 5\/8 inch wrench or socket. Always de-energize or isolate the system before performing fastener work on live electrical or mechanical assemblies. Do not over-torque brass hardware, as the material is softer than steel and susceptible to thread damage under excessive force. Confirm thread direction and pitch match the mating fastener before driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard Acorn Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nickel Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27\/64 inches\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: R63488261\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51708000141618,"sku":"R63488261","price":1667.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7c5b4478ece99442f3c1b679400e8db8_d63b0be2-660e-4a48-b28a-6805ec0c1789.jpg?v=1788443309","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-r63488261-acorn-nut-3-8-16-unc-brass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
