Chatsworth 20017-181 HEX NUT 5/16-18 Zinc
Overview
The Chatsworth 20017-181 is a pack of 100 zinc-plated hex nuts, specifically threaded for 5/16-18 UNC applications. These fasteners are critical for securing equipment in network racks, server cabinets, and surveillance mounting systems. They provide a reliable mechanical connection, ensuring that components remain stable and properly aligned during installation and operation, preventing vibration-induced loosening in environments with heavy network traffic or physical activity.
Compatibility
These 5/16-18 hex nuts are designed for use with standard threaded hardware found in most 19-inch rack systems, including those from Chatsworth, Kendall Howard, Middle Atlantic, and other major manufacturers. They are suitable for mounting rack shelves, patch panels, network switches, NVRs, and various surveillance camera brackets that utilize this common thread size.
Installation Notes
Requires a standard 1/2 inch wrench or socket for tightening. Ensure the mating threads are clean and free of debris for optimal engagement. Torque specifications will vary based on the equipment being mounted and the material of the mating component; consult equipment mounting guidelines if available. The zinc plating offers moderate corrosion resistance for typical indoor IT and security environments.
