These acorn nuts are what you would want and need. The size is as-stated and the stainless steel is shiny and strong. They function as you would expect them to, not much more to say than that!

Since I do a lot of custom-fabrication in my hot rods and customs auto-body shop, I often have the need to finish off the end of cut bolt-ends, after a standard hex nut has been secured, as to avoid nicking or scratching yourself, or just for a cleaner look. Anyhow, these SS acorn nuts are very nicely machined, without visual defects. The finish is highly polished, giving a high-end look and care. Since they are cast of premium material, I've not had even one of them strip out the threads, despite tightening force. Very pleased.

A pack of 6 pieces that are 3/8-16 in size. These nuts are made of stainless steel. These can be used indoor and outdoor. This is a real product and should not be left around small children. These nuts are well plated and will gauge properly. High quality products. Good day.

These acorn nuts work well, and have a nice finish. The only downside is when opening the lid, the label is blank so you can't easily see what sizes are each acorn nut. It would be 5 stars if the label showed the tray layout along with the sizes in each tray.

My day started out as most normal ones. I fed the birds while noticing the annoying squirrels had wiped out the sunflower seeds again. So after filling the feeder back up, I thought I'd set out a tasty trap for those squirrels. I tossed a half dozen of these acorn nuts into a live trap I had on hand. That outta entice them buggers!Later I attempted to do what the warning label on the package says, but I could not seem to have them say anything. I paid attention to them best I could. I guess I was a bit distracted as the prior statement was making me ponder what would be considered suitable hardware for children under 5 years? Perhaps these are too large and for adults so maybe 8/32 hardware?Oh well. These are six sided nontarnishable, one quarter inch in diameter with 20 turns per inch thread or UNC type threads that will functionally fasten inwards a bolt of corresponding specifications. It is one size larger than nuts that are commonly called machine screw nuts. This nut uses a 7/16 inch sized wrench. A standard socket will not work with this type of nut; use a deep well socket instead. This nut is not to be confused with a five sided nut. This is a hexagonal nut, it does not utilize witchcraft to tighten things. This nut does not have 16 sides, that's hexadecimal. Even though this nut should be called octal, everyone calls it a hex nut. Ridiculously, hex was adopted more as it was easier than octal; yet you deal with letters and numbers in hex and yet no letters and half the girth of numbers in the latter. At least in heavy machinery, the great majority of CNC systems have parameters written in octal. Wanna hear some shop talk humor? Bored at work, go turn your PWE on and change para 1815 from a 1 to 0. Take that round dial and spin it like the price is right big wheel, then change 1815 back to a 1 after it stops. Which axis? Doesn't matter, just better run faster than the engineer you asked for help to run the part. After that go ask Dan, another engineer, for a bucket of steam. Tell him you need it for the Z axis drive. If he looks puzzled then just say its for a little 7 inch offset and not those huge offsets everyone else says that are in the thousandths. Start humming a song about porosity while in a meeting with the raw material supplier; if they ask what's that about then just get real grumpy. Stare them in the eye and say that there's random hard material that keeps breaking the inserts. State the porosity is doing a number on those tools, especially your endmills.
