7/16 Hex Nut Dimensions Precise Sizing & Industrial Specifications

(7 16 hex nut dimensions)

Technical Superiority: Why Millimeter Precision Matters

We laser-etch every hex nut with its exact measurement – whether you need 8-32 hex nut dimensions (0.164" width across flats) or 8 hex nut dimensions (0.3125" height). Compare our tolerances:

Dimension	Industry Standard	Our Precision
7/16" Across Flats	±0.005"	±0.002"
8mm Height	±0.2mm	±0.05mm

Manufacturer Showdown: What Others Won’t Tell You

Why settle for generic 8 hex nut dimensions when you can get aerospace-grade specs? See how we outperform competitors:

• ✅ Material: 304L Stainless Steel vs. competitors' 201 SS
• ✅ Certification: ASME B18.2.2 compliance vs. ISO-only rivals
• ✅ Lead Time: 72-hour shipping vs. industry-standard 2 weeks

Q: What are the standard dimensions for a 7/16-16 hex nut?

A: A 7/16-16 hex nut has a nominal diameter of 7/16" (0.4375"), a thread pitch of 16 threads per inch (UNC), and a width across flats of 11/16" (0.6875"). The thickness typically measures around 13/64" (0.203").

Q: What is the size of an 8-32 hex nut in inches?

A: An 8-32 hex nut has a nominal diameter of 0.164" (No. 8 screw size) and 32 threads per inch (UNF). The width across flats is usually 11/32" (0.344"), with a thickness of approximately 3/32" (0.094").

Q: What are the dimensions of an 8mm hex nut?

A: An 8mm hex nut has a metric thread diameter of 8mm. The width across flats is typically 13mm (standard ISO size), and the thickness measures about 6.5mm for a standard hex nut.

Q: How does an 8-32 hex nut differ from an 8mm hex nut?

A: An 8-32 hex nut uses the Unified Thread Standard (imperial) with a No. 8 screw size, while an 8mm hex nut follows the metric system. Their thread pitches (32 TPI vs. 1.25mm pitch) and dimensional standards differ significantly.

Q: What is the width across flats for a 8 hex nut?

A: For a 8 hex nut in the UNC/UNF system, the width across flats is 11/32" (0.344"). In metric terms, an 8mm hex nut has a 13mm width across flats, but these are not directly equivalent sizes.
