Metallics JNN153D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size does the Metallics JNN153D nylon hex nut take?
The JNN153D is a 6-40 nylon hex nut, so it mates with a #6-40 machine screw thread. That is a fine-thread #6, not the more common #6-32 coarse thread, so a standard 6-32 screw will not thread into it.
2) How many nuts come in a jar of Metallics JNN153D?
Each jar holds 100 of the 6-40 nylon hex nuts. The jar pack is the ordering unit, which suits a service van or a shop drawer rather than a single-fastener pull.
3) Why use a nylon nut instead of steel or brass on an electrical job?
Nylon is non-conductive and non-corroding, so the JNN153D 6-40 nut is used where a metal nut would create a path to ground or seize up from corrosion: insulating standoffs, terminal and panel mounting, small device plates, low-voltage and electronics work. It carries far less clamp load than a steel nut, so it is not a structural fastener.
4) Are Metallics JNN153D nylon nuts made in the USA?
Yes, the 6-40 nylon hex nuts are USA made, which matters on government, institutional, and domestic-preference specs where the fastener line has to be documented.
5) Can I tighten a 6-40 nylon hex nut with a wrench?
It is a hex nut, so a small nut driver or wrench fits it, but nylon threads strip at low torque. Snug it by hand or with light wrench pressure only. If the joint needs real clamp load or will see vibration and heat, use a metal nut instead.
