FAQ

What nut should I use with Grade 8 fine thread rod?
Use a Grade 8 fine thread hex nut of the same size, such as a 1/2"-20 Grade 8 nut on 1/2"-20 rod.

What is the difference between coarse (USS) and fine (SAE) thread?
Coarse thread (UNC) has fewer threads per inch, goes together faster and is less likely to cross-thread. Fine thread (UNF) has more threads per inch, gives finer adjustment and holds better under vibration. The nut must match the rod's thread.
