Hobson NP2HYC100 1" UNC Heavy Hex Nut, Grade 2H, Zinc Yellow Passivate

A heavy hex nut is a larger, heavier pattern than a standard hex nut. It is turned with a spanner or socket onto a bolt, stud or threaded rod of the same thread form, diameter and pitch. This page lists 5 Hobson UNC heavy hex nuts (UNC thread, Grade 2H, zinc yellow passivate finish): 1/2" to 1".

Hobson defines Gr as the imperial grade-strength level of a screw or nut, for example Grade 2, Grade 5 or Grade 8 (manufacturer-stated).

Hobson describes the 2H nut as a nut strength level designation (ASTM A194 Grade 2H Heavy Hex Nut) (manufacturer-stated).

The Hobson strength tables cover bolts, not nuts, so no strength figures are published for these nuts.

Hobson defines UNC as Unified National Coarse Thread and TPI as threads per inch (manufacturer-stated).

Threads per inch come from the Hobson thread table, for the sizes it lists (manufacturer-stated).

The pack, box or bag quantity for each size is shown in the table.

Key specifications

Selecting the right option

Match the nut to the bolt, stud or rod: thread form, diameter and pitch must all agree. Sizes are nominal thread diameters in inches; compare the threads per inch with your bolt. Choose the class or grade to suit the bolt you are fastening, and confirm the pairing with your specification if the joint is load-critical.
