S-95185A251 5/16"-18 Press-Fit Nuts

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction for extended service life in demanding industrial environments
• Secure panel fastening in materials as thin as 0.056" without requiring additional hardware or complex installation
• Reliable thread engagement with Class 2B thread fit ensuring consistent performance and reduced cross-threading risks
• Optimized installation process using standard Z drill bit (0.413" diameter) for precise press-fit applications
• Enhanced vibration resistance through round head design that distributes load evenly across the panel surface
• Industry-standard compatibility with 5/16"-18 UNC coarse threads for seamless integration with existing fastener systems
• Environmental compliance meeting RoHS 3 standards for safe use in regulated applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This zinc-plated steel press fit nut delivers exceptional engineering value in panel mounting applications where space constraints and material thickness present significant challenges. The 5/16"-18 UNC coarse thread configuration provides superior pull-out resistance in thin-gauge materials, while the round head design ensures uniform pressure distribution to prevent panel deformation. Engineered for right-hand threading applications, this fastener eliminates the need for welding or additional hardware, significantly reducing assembly time and labor costs. The press-fit installation method creates permanent, vibration-resistant threads in panels as thin as 0.056", making it ideal for electronic enclosures, control panels, and machinery guards where reliable, long-term fastening solutions are critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This press fit nut features Class 2B thread fit per UNC standards with precise 0.5" head OD and 0.23" head height dimensions. Manufactured to exacting specifications for 0.413" drill bit size (Z) compatibility, ensuring proper interference fit in prepared holes. The product maintains full compliance with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) regulations and is engineered for use in panels with minimum 0.056" thickness. Thread specifications include right-hand direction and coarse spacing per standard industrial requirements.
