Battery post nuts needed

carguy · 11-26-2018, 09:56 AM

Hey all,

I am looking for stainless steel, battery post nuts. They are 5/16-18 thread, BUT the wrench size is 9/16. Everything I've found uses a 1/2 size wrench.
I need 6 of them.

Anybody know where I can find these nuts?

THANKS, Dave

Any home improvement store should have stainless nuts in a variety of sizes.

I have checked Home depot, Lowes, & the local Ace hdwr. They all have the nuts but in a 1/2 wrench size. I would prefer the 9/16 size

These are specialty nuts. Not available at most local stores.
I beg them from a local cart dealer.
You can also get them here:

They were OEM nuts. Maybe Club Car sells them ?
McMaster has SS shouldered nuts but they want an arm or a leg for them.
Shouldered nuts would give the same added contact.

If these are what you need send me a PM with your address and ill send them out to you. Im in NV so you would get them soon. These come with Trojan batteries that I buy. Ok was going to send a pic of what I have but I cant choose any files to upload. Maybe the mods can help me. Anyway on the package they are listed as HEX HVY NUT 18-8 S/S 5/16-18 NCX 9/16x9/64. Again these are what is sent to me when I purchase Trojan batteries.
