S-98697A530 10-32 Weld Nuts

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh industrial environments and outdoor applications.
• Precise thread engagement with Class 2B thread fit, ensuring reliable, vibration-resistant fastening in high-stress assemblies.
• Enhanced weld integrity from two weld projections, providing strong, permanent bonds to base materials without loosening.
• Space-saving low barrel profile (15/64" diameter, 1/32" height), allowing installation in confined spaces without compromising strength.
• Fine UNF thread spacing (10-32) delivers higher clamping force and better load distribution compared to coarse threads.
• Rectangular base design (5/8" length, 3/8" width) increases surface contact for improved stability and alignment during welding.
• Compliance with environmental standards including REACH and RoHS 3, ensuring safe use in regulated industries worldwide.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 10-32 UNF rectangular weld nut is engineered to address common industrial fastening challenges, such as vibration-induced loosening and corrosion in demanding environments. Made from 18-8 stainless steel, it offers excellent resistance to rust and chemical exposure, making it suitable for automotive frames, machinery enclosures, and structural assemblies where durability is critical. The low barrel profile and rectangular shape facilitate easy alignment and welding onto 1/4" diameter holes, while the fine thread spacing and Class 2B thread fit ensure tight, secure connections that withstand dynamic loads. Its two weld projections enhance bonding strength, reducing the risk of weld failure in high-temperature or high-stress applications, providing long-term reliability for OEM and MRO needs.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This weld nut features a 10-32 UNF fine thread with Class 2B thread fit for precise dimensional accuracy, adhering to standard inch measurement systems.
