Technical Overview

The QL8C24 pan head stud nut is engineered for structural panel applications requiring frequent access. The quad-lead thread design enables rapid quarter-turn installation while maintaining the load capacity required for aerospace, motorsport, and industrial installations. The .1640-32 UNC-3B four-lead thread features a modified minor diameter and dead stop design for consistent installation depth and enhanced cam engagement. Manufactured from 303 stainless steel and passivated per AMS 2700, this receptacle provides corrosion resistance in harsh operating environments.
