Metallics JN162D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Metallics JN162D nut made in the USA and Buy American compliant?
Country of origin is the United States, and the JN162D is flagged as both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant. That covers the documentation most government, school district and federally funded jobs ask for on fasteners.
2) What wrench or socket size do I need for a 10-32 Metallics hex nut?
Across the flats the nut measures 0.362 to 0.375 inch, so a 3/8 inch wrench, socket or nut driver fits it. Nut height runs 0.117 to 0.130 inch, which is low enough to sit flush in most box and strut applications without needing a deep socket.
3) Will a zinc plated steel 10-32 nut hold up outdoors or in a damp location?
The JN162D is steel with a zinc finish. Zinc plating handles indoor and protected locations fine, and resists incidental moisture, but it is not a stainless or hot dip galvanized fastener. For wet locations, exterior exposure or corrosive environments, specify a stainless steel 10-32 nut instead.
4) How many nuts come in a jar of Metallics JN162D, and is 100 the minimum order?
These ship 100 count in a jar, and 100 is the order minimum. The jar itself weighs 0.36 lbs. Metallics notes other sizes and quantities are available by request if you need a different pack.
5) Does the Metallics 10-32 hex nut meet a dimensional standard for spec jobs?
Dimensions follow ASME B18.2.2, the standard for hex nuts, so the nut interchanges with any other B18.2.2 10-32 hex nut on the job. Hardness is Rockwell B80 to C32.
6) Can I use these 10-32 nuts for grounding screws and bonding hardware in panels?
Yes, 10-32 is the thread used for grounding screws in outlet boxes and panel enclosures, and the JN162D is the matching nut in that size. It is plain zinc plated steel, not a serrated or locking nut, so where vibration is a concern on equipment mounts you want a lock nut or a star washer under it.
