5/16"-18 Conquest Grade 2 Hex Nut – Hot Dip Galvanized
The 5/16"-18 Conquest Grade 2 Hex Nut is a durable, general-purpose fastener made from carbon steel and coated with a corrosion-resistant hot dip galvanized finish. It features a coarse 18 TPI thread and standard hex profile, making it suitable for a wide range of light to medium-duty fastening applications. Whether used in framing, light utility builds, or maintenance tasks, this nut provides dependable holding power where high strength isn’t required.
Corrosion-Resistant Hex Nut for Framing, Utilities, and Light Structural Work
This nut is manufactured to ASTM A563 Grade 2 specifications and is intended for use with hot dip galvanized bolts and threaded rod such as A307 or Grade 55. The zinc coating provides protection against rust, making it ideal for outdoor or humid environments.

This is a reliable choice for projects ranging from fencing and railings to bracing and low-stress support assemblies.
