The Multiquip 3481 is a genuine OEM U-Type Nut #10-24 designed for a wide range of Multiquip equipment including LT6K and LT6KV towable light towers, STX6H and HTX6H ride-on power trowels, PRO12 series Essick stationary mixers, WM120SH and WM120PH Whiteman mixers, and EM120S and EM120P series Essick mixers. As a genuine OEM component, part 3481 is manufactured to the exact specification required for correct fitment and function across this broad equipment lineup. Sourced directly through Multiquip's authorized parts network, this fastener is a direct replacement that installs without modification. If you are maintaining, servicing, or rebuilding any of the compatible models, verifying part number 3481 against your equipment's parts manual ensures you receive the correct hardware.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hardware Spec: — Manufactured to the exact thread profile and material grade required for secure engagement in Multiquip assemblies — no guesswork on thread count or nut geometry.
- Drop-In Fastener Replacement: — #10-24 thread specification allows this nut to seat directly into existing panel, bracket, or housing mounting points without reworking the mating hardware.
- Broad Equipment Compatibility: — A single part number covers light towers (LT6K, LT6KV), ride-on trowels (STX6H, HTX6H), stationary mixers (PRO12 series), and Whiteman and Essick mixer models (WM120, EM120 series).
- Secure Retention in High-Vibration Environments: — The U-type clip design provides positive locking retention on panels and enclosures, resisting loosening under the operational vibration common to trowels, mixers, and light towers.
- Electrical Enclosure and Panel Safety: — Correct fastener torque and retention on electrical enclosures and control panels is critical to maintaining safe, weathertight closures on light towers and generator-adjacent equipment.
A U-type nut — sometimes called a U-clip nut or speed nut — is a spring-steel fastening clip that snaps onto a panel edge or flange, providing a captive threaded point for a machine screw to draw two panels or covers together. Because the clip compresses under screw torque, it maintains consistent clamping force even when the mating panel material is too thin to accept a conventional threaded insert. When these nuts become corroded, deformed, or lost during servicing, covers and access panels can no longer be secured properly, which on equipment like light towers and mixer control housings can expose wiring and components to moisture, dust, and mechanical damage.
