I need 3 Head nuts that are 3/8 #24 and 3/4" socket size for my 1930 model 66. Thanks in advance for your help.

How tall? You can probably have them made from stainless hex stock. That would eliminate the need for plating.

Are you sure these 3/8"-24 nuts have a 3/4" hex? That is awfully big; they normally have a 1/2" or 9/16" hex.
1/2" nuts are usually 3/4" hex.

They are the same outer size as 1/2" nuts but a smaller 3/8" center. Probably for more strength to support the head.

I believe those are called a heavy hex nut. Check in McMaster Carr for replacements.
