Thread Size Compatibility
This jam nut fits 5/8-18 in Right-Hand threaded rods, studs, and rod ends. Right-hand nuts thread clockwise to tighten using standard convention. Confirm thread size and hand before ordering, since left-hand and right-hand jam nuts are not interchangeable and mixing them will not lock the assembly.
