STUD needs Right Nut
STUD needs Right Nut
(OP)
Serious Question:
In the world of threads, can a 3/8-24 SAE nut join and live happily everafter with a 3/8-24 UNF-2A STUD. Or should only UNF 2A meet other UNF's for proper joining and connections.
We are experiencing stripped STUDS/UNF using ESNA/SAE nuts and are trying to find a possible cause. We currently do not have GO NO GO gages on either, which logically will soon be corrected.
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks,

RE: STUD needs Right Nut
Stripping threads sounds like overtightening problem or poor stud material.
