S-91862A543 5/16"-32 Panel Nuts

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in harsh industrial environments
• Space-saving thin profile (3/32" height) enables reliable fastening in confined assembly areas where standard nuts won't fit
• Precise thread engagement with Class 2B fit ensures consistent, vibration-resistant connections in critical applications
• Enhanced thread engagement through UNEF extra fine spacing provides superior holding power in thin materials and delicate components
• Easy installation and removal with external hex drive design allows for standard wrench access in tight panel applications
• Regulatory compliance assurance with RoHS 3 and REACH compliance meets stringent environmental standards for industrial use
• Optimized for panel applications with right-hand threading and hex shape delivers secure fastening in electronic enclosures and machinery panels

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 5/16"-32 UNEF thin panel nut solves critical space constraints in industrial assembly while maintaining thread integrity in demanding applications. The 18-8 stainless steel composition provides excellent corrosion resistance for electronics enclosures, control panels, and machinery where environmental factors threaten fastener longevity. The extra fine thread spacing offers superior grip in thin-gauge materials, preventing stripping and maintaining vibration resistance in high-stress environments. With its thin hex profile and external drive style, engineers can achieve secure fastening in limited-clearance situations common in aerospace, telecommunications, and precision instrumentation assemblies where reliability cannot be compromised.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This panel nut features 5/16"-32 UNEF extra fine threading with Class 2B thread fit for precision tolerance, measuring 3/8" width and 3/32" height with right-hand thread direction. Manufactured to industry standards for hex panel nuts, the component is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental safety and regulatory acceptance for industrial procurement requirements.
