3/8-24 RH / 1/2-20 RHBAN-8-6 is a right-hand bung adjuster nut with 3/8-24 RH internal thread and 1/2-20 RH external thread. Hex size = 0.563″ across flats, total length = 1.25″, hex length = 0.219″.
Made from 4130 chromoly steel with silver zinc plating. The bung adjuster nut fits into a weld-in tube bung and accepts a rod end or linkage component on the internal thread, while the external thread connects to a tube adapter or threaded housing. Allows fine length adjustment in suspension links, steering tie rods, and push-pull control rods.
Left-hand thread versions available (BANL prefix). Paired with tube adapters (WTF series) and rod ends for complete adjustable linkage assemblies. Special sizes and plating options available in volume.

The BAN-8-6 fits into a weld-in tube bung and accepts a rod end or linkage component on its internal thread, while the external thread connects to a tube adapter or threaded housing. It allows fine length adjustment in suspension links, steering tie rods, and push-pull control rods.
Internal thread is 3/8-24 RH and external thread is 1/2-20 RH — confirm both against the tube bung and the rod end or adapter you're threading into before ordering.
BAN-8-6 and BANL-8-6 are a matched right-hand/left-hand pair on the same thread sizes — BAN-8-6 is threaded 3/8-24 RH/1/2-20 RH, while its counterpart uses the opposite hand on both ends. Use the matched pair on a turnbuckle-style double adjuster, or order the single hand that matches your existing tube bung and rod end threads.
Hex size is 0.563" across flats, hex length is 0.219", and total length is 1.25" — check the hex size against your wrench/socket and the total length against your available adjustment space.
The BAN-8-6 is made from 4130 chromoly steel with a silver zinc-plated finish.
It's paired with tube adapters (WTF series) and rod ends to build a complete adjustable linkage assembly. Special sizes and plating options are available in volume — provide your target thread sizes and quantity when requesting a quote.
