M16-2 Class 8 hex nuts, five pack

These MIDWEST FASTENER CORP hex nuts fit M16-2 threads and are made from Class 8 steel with a zinc plated finish. The pack contains five pieces for securing bolts and machine screws in mechanical assemblies. They suit automotive, industrial and general maintenance tasks where metric coarse threads are required.

Steel construction handles high clamping loads

Class 8 rating indicates the nuts withstand substantial tightening torque without stripping. Zinc plating resists corrosion during normal shop or vehicle use. No moving parts means silent operation and zero power draw in any installation.

Five-piece pack covers typical fastener needs

Zinc coating allows outdoor or under-hood exposure without rapid rusting. Standard hex profile works with common wrenches and sockets. Buyers needing fine-pitch threads, stainless material or larger quantities will need a different product.

Questions about this item

How do I install the M16-2 hex nut and what step is often missed?

Thread the nut onto the M16-2 bolt or machine screw by hand until snug, then tighten with the correct spanner; the step often missed is verifying full thread engagement before final torque.

What maintenance or replacement will the Class 8 zinc-plated steel hex nuts need later?

Inspect the zinc plating for corrosion and check threads for damage; replace any nut showing rust, stripped threads or deformation to maintain clamping force.

What limit appears first on the M16-2 Class 8 nuts under sustained vibration or load?

The prevailing limit is loss of preload from vibration or thermal cycling, which can loosen the joint before the Class 8 proof strength is reached.
