Product Description
Simpson CNW5/8-1/2 CNW 5/8 in. to 1/2 in. Coupler Nut with Witness Hole is an engineered fastener from Simpson Strong-Tie designed to connect threaded rods to one another and to anchor bolts. This coupler nut is built to exceed the specified minimum tensile capacity of the corresponding bolts and threaded rod, making it a reliable choice for structural rod-to-rod and rod-to-anchor-bolt connections. A built-in positive stop and Witness hole provide a clear, verifiable means of confirming proper installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I know when the threaded rods are properly installed in the CNW5/8-1/2 coupler nut?
- The CNW coupler nut features a Witness hole that allows you to visually verify proper installation. Tighten the two rods until each all-thread rod is visible through the Witness hole, confirming that both rods have been threaded sufficiently into each end of the nut.
- What rod sizes does the CNW5/8-1/2 accommodate?
- This coupler nut is designed to connect a 5/8 in. diameter threaded rod on one end to a 1/2 in. diameter threaded rod on the other end, making it suitable for transitioning between two different rod sizes.
- Can the CNW5/8-1/2 be used with hot-dip galvanized all-thread rod?
- No. The CNW5/8-1/2 is intended for non-hot-dip galvanized all-thread rod only. For use with hot-dip galvanized bolts, Simpson Strong-Tie offers OST model couplers that feature oversized threads on one end to accommodate the thicker galvanized coating.
- What is the purpose of the positive stop in the CNW coupler nut?
- The positive stop is an internal feature of the CNW coupler nut designed to help ensure even threading into each end of the nut. It acts as a mid-point barrier so that both rods are threaded to a consistent and balanced depth, promoting proper thread engagement and structural integrity.
