SuperDealStuff Dowels Barrel Nuts 1/4-20 16mm by 10mm Zinc Plated

Description

Product Overview

SuperDealStuff presents a high‑performance barrel nut engineered for demanding industrial and scientific environments. Constructed from hardened steel and finished with a zinc plating, each nut offers superior corrosion resistance and long‑term durability. The 1/4‑20 thread size aligns with standard cross dowel specifications, while the 16 mm overall length and 10 mm off‑center hole provide a precise fit for a wide range of assemblies. These dimensions ensure a secure engagement that resists loosening under vibration, making them ideal for machinery, automotive components, and heavy‑duty equipment. The off‑center design allows the nut to sit flush against the workpiece, reducing stress concentrations and improving load distribution. With a bulk package of 400 pieces, you receive a reliable inventory that supports high‑volume production runs and reduces the need for frequent reordering.

Usage

These barrel nuts excel in applications where a strong, permanent connection is required. They are commonly used to fasten cross dowels in motor housings, gearboxes, and structural frames where space constraints demand an off‑center mounting solution. The zinc‑plated finish protects against moisture and chemical exposure, making them suitable for outdoor equipment, agricultural machinery, and marine installations. Installers appreciate the slotted head design, which allows for easy insertion with a standard screwdriver or Allen wrench, streamlining assembly time on the shop floor. Whether you are building a prototype, maintaining existing equipment, or producing a large batch of products, these nuts provide consistent performance and simplify inventory management.
