Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a bright uncoated finish, this nut features a 7\/8-14 UNF (Unified National Fine) right-hand thread pattern. It measures 0.75 inches in height and 1.3125 inches across the flats, conforming to standard inch-system fastener dimensions. The slotted design accommodates a cotter pin or safety wire for added locking security in assemblies subject to movement, load cycling, or vibration. Licensed tradespeople, maintenance mechanics, and industrial assemblers typically specify this type of nut where standard hex nuts may back off under service conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis slotted hex lock nut is suited for use in general mechanical assemblies, automotive drivetrain components, agricultural equipment, and light industrial machinery. The 7\/8-14 UNF thread size is a fine-pitch designation, commonly found in applications requiring precise clamping force and tight thread engagement. The bright uncoated finish is appropriate for indoor or controlled-environment installations where corrosion exposure is minimal. It is sold and packaged as a single unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlotted design accepts cotter pin or safety wire for positive locking against vibration and back-off\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/8-14 UNF right-hand thread for precise, fine-pitch engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction for standard-duty mechanical fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for controlled-environment use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInch-system dimensioning compliant with UNF fastener standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.75 inch height and 1.3125 inch width across flats for standard wrench fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard UNF slotted hex lock nut for use with any 7\/8-14 right-hand threaded bolt or stud conforming to inch-system fastener specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or assembler familiar with UNF fastener standards. Always ensure the mating bolt or stud thread is clean and free of damage before installation. Use an appropriately sized open-end or box wrench sized for 1.3125 inches across the flats, and install a cotter pin through the castellation slots and bolt hole after reaching the required assembly position to secure the nut against rotation. Do not overtighten or hammer the nut onto the thread, as this can damage the thread form and compromise locking function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slotted Lock Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8-14 UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth Across Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: SNFI2087-015BX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693844562226,"sku":"SNFI2087-015BX","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/51ae38f361ad659aceca2a9f3eeebc4b.jpg?v=1788318095","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-snfi2087-015bx-slotted-hex-lock-nut-7-8-14","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
