S-94177A240 1/4"-32 Panel Nuts

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Exceptional corrosion resistance with 316 Stainless Steel construction, ideal for harsh or marine environments where rust and chemical exposure are concerns.
• Superior vibration resistance due to the UNEF (Unified Extra Fine) thread profile, ensuring fasteners stay securely locked in high-vibration applications.
• Space-saving thin profile with a height of just 5/64", allowing for installation in tight or limited-clearance panel assemblies.
• Reliable and precise fit guaranteed by the Class 2B thread fit, providing smooth assembly and consistent clamping force.
• Easy installation and removal with a standard 5/16" external hex drive, compatible with common wrenches for efficient maintenance.
• Compliance with stringent environmental regulations, being RoHS 3 and REACH compliant for use in global markets and sensitive industries.
• Durable and long-lasting performance in panel mounting applications, engineered to withstand demanding industrial cycles without failure.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 1/4"-32 UNEF thin hex panel nut is engineered to solve critical challenges in panel assembly and electronic enclosures. The 316 Stainless Steel material offers superior resistance to corrosion from moisture, chemicals, and salt spray, making it a reliable choice for outdoor, marine, and chemical processing equipment. The extra fine UNEF thread and Class 2B fit are specifically designed to combat loosening under vibration, a common failure point in machinery and transportation applications. Its thin profile is invaluable in modern, compact designs where space is at a premium, such as in communication devices, control panels, and aerospace instrumentation. This combination of a corrosion-resistant body and vibration-resistant threading delivers long-term reliability, reducing maintenance downtime and ensuring the structural integrity of your assemblies.
