Metallics SLN58C – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size do the Metallics SLN58C slip-on locknuts fit?
The SLN58C is a 5/8-11 locknut, so it mates with 5/8 inch threaded rod or bolts cut to the standard 11 threads-per-inch coarse series. It will not run onto 1/2-13 or 3/8-16 rod, which are the other two sizes most commonly used for hanging electrical and mechanical supports.
2) What is a slip-on locknut and why use one instead of a standard hex nut on threaded rod?
A slip-on locknut pushes straight up the rod to position instead of being spun on from the end, then locks when loaded. On a long drop of 5/8-11 rod that saves spinning a nut down several feet of thread, which is the whole reason crews carry them for hanger and trapeze work. A standard hex nut has to be threaded from the rod end.
3) Are the Metallics SLN58C locknuts corrosion protected for damp indoor use?
They are steel with a zinc plating, the standard finish for interior and protected electrical support hardware. Zinc plating is not intended for direct weather exposure, chemical, or coastal service, so for an exterior or washdown location specify stainless or hot dip galvanized hardware instead.
4) How many Metallics SLN58C locknuts come in a box?
The SLN58C ships as a box of 100 pieces, packaged by the box rather than loose, so a single order covers a full run of 5/8 inch rod hangers rather than a handful of points.
