Description
12990044 – U-Nut 1/4-20 (7GA)
The 12990044 U-Nut is a 1/4-20 threaded clip nut manufactured from 7-gauge spring steel, designed to provide a secure, self-retaining threaded fastening point on thin panels and sheet metal. This fastener is commonly used in lawn and garden equipment, commercial mowers, and light industrial assemblies where a welded nut or tapped hole is not practical.
The U-style design clips firmly over the edge of a panel or bracket, holding the nut in position during assembly and helping maintain thread alignment. Its spring steel construction allows it to resist vibration while simplifying installation and service.
