Hobson NHG5PF043 7/16" UNF Hex Nut, Grade 5, High Tensile Steel, Plain

A hex nut is the standard six-sided 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 4 Hobson UNF hex nuts (UNF thread, Grade 5, high tensile steel, plain finish): 1/4" to 7/16".

The high tensile steel description comes from the store title; the supplier descriptions do not state a material.

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).

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

Hobson defines UNF as Unified National Fine 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.
