A Vulcan Hart NS-025-16 Crown/Acorn Nut holds threaded parts firmly together to maintain a secure assembly during regular use.
The crown/acorn nut secures threaded components in place on foodservice equipment such as kettles, skillets, pans, peelers, corers and wedgers so assemblies remain properly aligned during operation. Its closed-end acorn design protects exposed threads from damage and contamination while the 3/8-16 sizing ensures a correct fit and dependable fastening strength.
The crown/acorn nut may need replacement if connected components begin to loosen, shift, vibrate more than usual or fail to stay securely fastened during operation. Physical signs can include stripped threads, rounding, cracking or corrosion and environmental signs may include grease buildup, moisture exposure or repeated washdown conditions that could weaken its fit over time.
