Questions about this item

What thread pitch and length does the 31801 fastener use so I can match it with the right nut?

The 31801 has a 3/8"-16 coarse thread and measures 2-1/2" long, so any 3/8"-16 nut will engage correctly.

Will the 31801 work with the Grade 5 bolts I already have in my appliance repair kit?

Yes, the 3/8"-16 coarse thread on the 31801 matches standard Grade 5 bolts of the same size, allowing them to thread together without cross-threading.

How can I confirm the 31801 is seated properly after installation?

When the 31801 is fully tightened the threads should be fully engaged with no visible gap, and the joint should feel firm with no lateral movement.
