With a 3\/8-24 UNF thread size and 1.5-inch length under the head, this fastener delivers the elevated tensile strength and proof load characteristic of Grade 8 hardware. The partial threading design allows the unthreaded shank to bear shear loads in bolted joints. Licensed tradespeople and assembly technicians working with precision-fit connections will find this screw built to the dimensional and mechanical requirements of ASME B18.2.1 and SAE J429.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex head cap screw is suited for use in demanding mechanical and industrial environments where standard Grade 5 or lower fasteners do not meet load requirements. The 3\/8-24 UNF fine thread pitch provides greater thread engagement and resistance to loosening under vibration compared to coarse thread equivalents. Typical applications include equipment frames, mounting brackets, and drivetrain assemblies in both commercial and industrial settings. Installers working in automotive, heavy equipment, and machinery maintenance commonly specify Grade 8 hardware for critical joint applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 8 steel construction meets SAE J429 mechanical property requirements for high-strength fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-24 UNF fine thread for superior thread engagement and vibration resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePartially threaded shank allows unthreaded body to carry shear loads in precision joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.5-inch length under head suits medium-depth bolted connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards for hex head cap screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInch measurement system for compatibility with standard SAE tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-dimension Grade 8 UNF hex head cap screw per ASME B18.2.1 and SAE J429, compatible with 3\/8-24 threaded holes and nuts in inch-standard mechanical assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by qualified mechanical or maintenance technicians familiar with fastener torque specifications for Grade 8 hardware. De-energize and lock out all equipment before replacing fasteners in live assemblies. Use a calibrated torque wrench and apply torque values per the equipment manufacturer's specifications or applicable fastener torque tables for 3\/8-24 Grade 8 hardware. Inspect mating threads for damage or contamination before installation to ensure proper clamp load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreading\u003c\/strong\u003e: Partially Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B18.2.1, SAE J429\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement System\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.006 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ARMOR COAT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: UST235786\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ARMOR COAT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67911768506674,"sku":"UST235786","price":6161.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/68f16fda7fc8fec6c6499b0a9572bddb_5a86d308-7bcd-4969-93ef-d92c4c60a2f9.jpg?v=1791219127","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/armor-coat-ust235786-hex-head-cap-screw-3-8-24-grade-8","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
