HILLMAN Hex Nut, 1/2-20 Thread, Stainless Steel

Hex nuts are to be used with machine bolts to adhere facing materials to prevent tension and shear movement. Specifically in wood to wood, wood to metal, or metal to metal applications. Grade 18-8 stainless steel hex nuts are recommended for most outdoor construction uses and are corrosion resistant. Be sure to pre-drill any holes and to use washers and bolts that are a similar grade and finish.
