S-96439A840 3/8"-16 Press-Fit Nuts

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-term reliability in harsh industrial environments
• Exceptional holding power in panels as thin as 0.25" through precision press-fit installation
• Reliable coarse threading with UNC 3/8"-16 specification and Class 2B fit for secure fastening in vibration-prone applications
• Flush mounting capability with 0.56" round head design that sits perfectly against panel surfaces
• Streamlined installation using standard 1/2" drill bits for reduced assembly time and labor costs
• Environmental compliance with RoHS 3 standards for use in regulated industries and global markets
• Optimized head profile at 0.27" height providing maximum strength without compromising space constraints

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 18-8 stainless steel press-fit nut delivers exceptional engineering value in panel mounting applications where vibration resistance and corrosion protection are critical. The UNC coarse threading (3/8"-16) combined with Class 2B thread fit ensures reliable performance in high-stress environments while the right-hand thread direction provides compatibility with standard fastening systems. The round head design with precise 0.56" OD creates a seamless flush mount that eliminates protrusion issues in confined spaces. Engineered for 0.25" minimum panel thickness, this press-fit solution eliminates the need for welding or additional hardware, significantly reducing assembly time and manufacturing costs in electronic enclosures, machinery panels, and industrial equipment where durable thread reinforcement is essential.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This press-fit nut features UNC 3/8"-16 coarse threading with Class 2B thread fit per standard inch system specifications. The component maintains precise dimensional accuracy with 0.56" head OD and 0.27" head height for consistent press-fit performance using 1/2" drill bit preparation. Manufacturing compliance includes full adherence to RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) standards, ensuring environmental regulatory compliance for global industrial applications.
