Bowmalloy 36093 Hex Head Cap Screw 7/16-14 X 5 in Grade 9

Product Description

The BOWMALLOY 36093 is a Grade 9 alloy steel hex head cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications in mechanical, structural, and industrial assemblies. With a 7/16-14 thread size and a 5-inch length under the head, this partially threaded fastener delivers the clamping force and shear resistance required in demanding service environments. The zinc-plated clear chromate finish provides a baseline level of corrosion protection suitable for general-purpose installations. Licensed trades and maintenance professionals working with heavy equipment, structural steel, or mechanical systems will find this fastener compatible with standard hex-drive tooling.

This cap screw is suited for residential and commercial construction, industrial equipment assembly, HVAC structural mounting, and general mechanical fastening where inch-series hardware is specified. The 7/16-14 coarse thread pattern is common in applications requiring quick engagement and good resistance to loosening under vibration. The partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to bear shear loads, making it appropriate for bolted joints where load transfer through the body of the fastener is required.

Key Features

• Grade 9 alloy steel construction for high tensile and proof-load strength
• 7/16-14 coarse thread - inch-series, compatible with standard hex nuts and tapped holes
• 5-inch length under head with partial threading for combined shear and tension applications
• Zinc-plated clear chromate finish for baseline corrosion resistance
• Hex head drive accepts standard hex sockets and open-end wrenches

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw for use in any application specifying a 7/16-14 x 5-inch Grade 9 alloy steel fastener with partial threading.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic, millwright, or licensed tradesperson following applicable fastener torque standards for Grade 9 hardware. Always verify thread engagement depth and joint material compatibility before installation. Do not mix inch-series and metric fasteners in the same assembly. Follow applicable codes and equipment manufacturer specifications for fastener replacement in structural or safety-critical joints.
