2 inch long nut? Special name?
I'm looking at joining two 3/8" male fittings together. I've seen nuts that
are 2 inches (or longer) that would do the job. Unfortunately, I can't find anywhere to buy them. Is there a special name for these long nuts? |

Thanks though! |

A turnbuckle has left-handed thread on one end. HTH :-) Bob |

I'm looking at joining two 3/8" male fittings together. I've seen nuts
that are 2 inches (or longer) that would do the job. Unfortunately, I can't find anywhere to buy them. I just saw some of these at Home Depot - in the long bank of drawers with standard and semi-specialized hardware. Andy |

Is there a special name for these long nuts? If they are used to join 2 males, they would be called HOMOSEXUAL NUTS.... By the way, a guy with 2 inch (or longer) nuts would be a freak !!!! You can probably find these nuts on one of the online GAY SITES such as egay.com. Or look to a site such as: http://www.extremerestraints.com/coc.../cock-rings_34 |
