FAQ

What vehicles are compatible with the FT541‑23 hex nut?

The FT541‑23 hex nut is designed for a range of powersports and automotive applications that use the OEM part numbers 16950‑393‑015, 16950‑388‑015, 16950‑388‑005, 16950‑447‑015, and 16950‑410‑015. It fits most gasoline‑powered motorcycles, ATVs, and small utility vehicles that require a 16mm thread and a 22mm hex head. If you are unsure whether your specific model is compatible, consult your vehicle’s service manual or contact our support team with your VIN for confirmation.

How do I install the hex nut correctly to avoid over‑tightening?

Begin by cleaning the mating surface to remove any debris or old sealant. Use a torque wrench set to the manufacturer’s recommended torque value—typically between 15 and 20 Nm for this size. Insert the nut and turn it clockwise until it seats fully, then apply the final torque using the wrench. Avoid using excessive force, as this can strip the threads or damage the surrounding components. If you lack a torque wrench, a standard 22mm socket can be used, but be mindful of the applied pressure and check for any movement after installation.

Can I use this nut for aftermarket fuel system upgrades?

Yes, the FT541‑23 hex nut is an excellent choice for aftermarket fuel system upgrades because it provides a reliable, high‑strength connection point. Its robust steel construction and precise threading support higher flow rates and increased pressure that often accompany performance modifications. Ensure that any additional components you install are also rated for the intended pressure levels, and always double‑check for leaks after completing the upgrade.

What warranty does USonline911 offer on this product?

USonline911 provides a limited one‑year warranty covering defects in material or workmanship. If the hex nut fails due to manufacturing issues within the warranty period, we will replace it at no additional cost. The warranty does not cover damage caused by improper installation, misuse, or modifications that deviate from the original design specifications. For warranty claims, retain the original packaging and proof of purchase, and contact our customer service team for assistance.

Is the hex nut shipped with any additional hardware?

The product is shipped as a single, brand‑new hex nut, fully tested and ready for installation. No additional hardware such as washers, gaskets, or sealants is included. Depending on your specific application, you may need to source compatible washers or sealing compounds separately.
