S.U.R.&R. – 7/16-24 INVRTD Flare NUT 50PK

Description

Product Overview

The S.U.R.&R. 7/16-24 invrted flare nut is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of industrial, automotive, and HVAC applications where a secure, leak‑free tube connection is essential. Constructed from high‑grade steel with a gold‑colored finish, this nut offers excellent corrosion resistance while maintaining the strength needed for high‑pressure environments. The invrted (inverted) flare design provides a larger bearing surface, reducing stress on the tube and ensuring a tight seal that prevents fluid loss. Each nut is sized to fit a 7/16‑24 thread, a common standard in many tube‑fitting systems, and the package includes 50 pieces, making it an economical choice for bulk projects or ongoing maintenance inventories. Detailed specifications include a compact 4 × 4 × 4 inch package size, a weight of 0.77 lb per pack, and compliance with industry standards for flared tube nuts.

Usage

Designed for versatility, the 7/16-24 invrted flare nut excels in a variety of real‑world scenarios. In automotive repair shops, technicians rely on this nut to secure fuel and brake lines, where any leakage could compromise safety. In HVAC installations, the nut connects refrigerant lines and ensures a hermetic seal that maintains system efficiency. Industrial facilities use it for pneumatic and hydraulic tubing, where the gold finish not only adds a visual cue for proper installation but also resists the harsh chemicals often encountered in manufacturing environments. The nut’s robust construction allows it to withstand temperature fluctuations from sub‑zero outdoor conditions to the high heat of engine compartments, making it a reliable component for both new builds and retrofit projects.

FAQ

What materials are compatible with this flare nut?

The nut is suitable for copper, brass, and stainless‑steel tubing commonly used in automotive, HVAC, and industrial applications. Its gold coating prevents galvanic corrosion when paired with these materials.

Can this nut be used in high‑pressure hydraulic systems?

Yes, the inverted flare design and high‑strength steel construction allow the nut to maintain a secure seal under pressures typical of hydraulic systems, provided the correct torque specifications are followed.

Is the gold finish purely decorative?

While the gold finish adds visual distinction, it also serves a functional purpose by enhancing corrosion resistance and making the nut easier to identify during installation and inspection.

How do I determine the correct torque setting?

We recommend consulting the equipment manufacturer’s guidelines for the specific application. Generally, a torque range of 15‑20 lb‑ft is appropriate for most 7/16‑24 flare connections.

What is the return policy if the nuts arrive damaged?

Our return policy allows you to report any damaged or defective items within 30 days of receipt. We will arrange a replacement shipment or issue a refund after evaluating the returned product.
