Value Collection SNI2062-050BX Slotted Lock Nut 5/8-11

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SNI2062-050BX is a slotted lock nut designed for use with 5/8-11 Unified National Coarse (UNC) threaded fasteners. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this nut measures 35/64 inches in height and 15/16 inches across the flats. The slotted design accepts a cotter pin or safety wire inserted through a matching castellated bolt or stud, preventing the nut from backing off under vibration or cyclic loading. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals use this style of nut in mechanical assemblies where positive locking retention is required.

This slotted lock nut is suited for general industrial, mechanical, and structural assembly applications where a standard 5/8-11 UNC thread is specified. It is appropriate for use in light machinery, equipment maintenance, and fabrication work across manufacturing, construction, and trade service environments. The right-hand thread direction conforms to standard fastener convention. The bright, uncoated finish is appropriate for interior or controlled-environment applications where corrosion exposure is minimal.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a standard open-end or box wrench sized to 15/16 inches across the flats. Before installation, confirm the mating fastener or stud features a cotter pin hole or safety wire groove aligned with the nut slots at the specified torque position. Always follow applicable mechanical assembly standards or equipment manufacturer specifications for final torque values. Inspect threads for damage or contamination before assembly.
