Brake Repair Speed Nuts
The MIDWEST FASTENER 69246 pack supplies five coarse-thread extruded long U nuts designed for brake repair tasks. Each nut features a 3/8"-16 thread size and a black phosphate finish for corrosion resistance. Mechanics and DIY technicians use these speed nuts to secure brake components efficiently.
Phosphate Coating Durability
The black phosphate coating protects the steel nuts from rust during normal under-vehicle exposure. Installation requires only hand pressure or light tools, producing minimal noise in the workshop. No external power draw is involved as these are purely mechanical fasteners.
Five-Pack Convenience
The package contains five identical long U speed nuts, letting technicians replace multiple points without opening separate boxes. No additional software or specialised accessories are bundled with the hardware. The nuts arrive ready to install directly from the manufacturer.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 3/8"-16 coarse thread extruded long U speed nuts and what step is often missed?
Thread each nut onto the 3/8"-16 stud by hand until the phosphate coating grips, then tighten with a wrench; the step often missed is confirming full thread engagement before applying final torque.
What maintenance or replacement will the black phosphate long U nuts need later?
Inspect the phosphate finish periodically for corrosion; replace any nut that shows thread damage or coating loss to maintain clamping force on the brake assembly.
What limit appears first when the extruded long U nuts are under sustained brake vibration?
The coarse 16 thread pitch resists loosening, but prolonged vibration can eventually overcome the phosphate friction grip, so re-check torque at service intervals.
