Description
Overview:
These Size No. 10 U Nuts are zinc-plated steel clip nuts designed to secure panels and components quickly and reliably. The spring-action U shape grips the edge of sheet material to provide a captive thread for a matching screw, saving time versus drilling and tapping. The zinc plating offers good corrosion resistance for general indoor and outdoor use. Suitable for construction equipment, garden machinery, vehicles, enclosures, and plant, they are commonly used on guards, cowls, covers, and bodywork. Size No. 10 corresponds to an approximate screw diameter of 3/16 in (about 4.8 mm). Supplied in a pack of 100 for convenient stocking across site teams or workshops. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 903 0782.
