U-NutThis aftermarket U-nut is a sheet-metal spring clip nut that clamps onto a panel edge to provide a threaded hole without a welded boss. Forklift bodywork uses them for cowling, floorboards, dash panels, counterweight covers, and battery compartment hardware where bolts thread into the U-nut from one side. Body shops and fleet mechanics buy them when refastening sheet metal during accident repair or component swaps. Sold as a crossover aftermarket replacement. Confirm panel thickness range, thread size, and clip geometry against the original before installing, since U-nuts vary by edge thickness and grip range.Aftermarket replacement part, cross-references original part number AC01597-01009.Need help confirming fit?
