Left-Hand Threaded Low-Strength Steel Thin Hex Nuts
These nuts tighten when turned to the left; once fastened, they resist loosening from counterclockwise motion. Also known as jam nuts, they are about half the height of standard hex nuts. Use them in low-clearance applications or jam one against another nut to hold it in place. About half the strength of medium-strength steel thin nuts, use them for light duty fastening applications, such as securing access panels.
Black-oxide steel nuts have a dark surface color and are mildly corrosion resistant in dry environments. They also meet DIN dimensional standards.

These nuts tighten to the left and won’t loosen from counterclockwise motion. Made from brass, they resist corrosion, conduct electricity, and are nonmagnetic. They’re half the height of standard hex nuts, so they’re good for use in low-clearance areas. Jam them against another nut to hold them in place. When used with a standard hex nut, they’re suitable for fastening most equipment.

Inch-to-Inch Male-Female Hex Thread Adapters
Join threads with small diameters to large or course threads to fine with these inch-sized adapters. Use them to position components in an assembly, or to create space between parts. An external hex lets you tighten or loosen them with a wrench.
18-8 stainless steel adapters can be used in wet environments, but chemicals or salt water will cause staining and rust spots.
Adapters that meet ASTM specifications are made from or plated with materials that adhere to specific standards for chemical and physical properties, such as hardness.

Inch-to-Inch Female Hex Thread Adapters
Connect two differently sized male-threaded parts, such as threaded rods, and tighten with a standard wrench. The threads on these adapters have various sizes and spacing, so you can increase or decrease thread size or adapt from coarse to fine threading. You can also use them to change the gender of a connection from male to female. Small adapters can work as threaded standoffs, which position and separate circuit boards and other components in assemblies.
18-8 stainless steel adapters resist corrosion caused by water. They're good for wet and damp environments but will corrode when exposed to salt water and other chloride solutions.
316 stainless steel adapters have the best corrosion resistance. They stand up to wet environments, just like 18-8 stainless steel adapters, but unlike 18-8 stainless steel adapters, they resist corrosion caused by salt water and harsh chemicals.

Inch-to-Inch Male Hex Thread Adapters
Need to join two female-threaded parts, such as coupling nuts, with dissimilar inch thread sizes? Attach them to these adapters and tighten the exterior hex nut for a secure connection. You can also use these adapters to change the gender of a mating part from female to male, increase or decrease the thread size, or convert the threads from fine to coarse (and vice versa). The smaller adapters act as threaded standoffs, positioning and separating circuit boards and other components in assemblies. All of these adapters meet ASTM specifications, which means they’re made from or plated with materials that adhere to specific standards for chemical and physical properties, such as hardness.
