• Description:

  This is a genuine Ford hex nut and washer assembly, a combination fastener with the nut and a captive washer formed as one piece so it spreads clamp load and resists loosening. Ford dealer catalogs list it as Nut and Washer Assembly Hex, and it is documented in Ford parts-list diagrams as a service fastener used at several body and chassis locations, including hood assembly hardware and fuel tank strap and fuel pump mounting hardware, where it threads onto a stud to hold a panel, strap, or bracket in position. The captive washer distributes the clamping force across a wider area, which helps protect the mating surface and keeps the joint tight under vibration. Fasteners in this family are shared across many Ford and Lincoln platforms, including F-150 and related models, and span a broad range of model years rather than a single application. Because Ford uses a common hex nut and washer assembly like this in many positions, the examples above are representative rather than a complete list. A loose, missing, or corroded nut and washer assembly lets the component it secures shift, rattle, or separate, which can lead to noise, an ill-fitting panel, or a loose strap or bracket depending on where it is used. Replacing it with the correct genuine fastener restores proper clamp load and thread fit. Because this nut is used in different positions and torque requirements vary by location, confirm the exact fastener required for your specific vehicle against your VIN before ordering.

• Notes: Part cannot be reused/reinstalled.
