What is the hex width? 11/16"?

The outside dimension (from the flat side to the opposite flat side) is 9/16 in. The inside diameter is about 3/8 in. The Hex nut fits on a standard Threaded Lamp Pipe (Threaded 1/8-IP). I am also trying to find what the thread size is so I can use thicker nuts. I build Industrial and Steampunk Lamps and use a lot of this product.

What is the thickness of the nut? Looking for thinner than 2.5mm (0.1 inch)

I measured five (5) and found the thickness to range from 0.120" - 0.124".
