Bowmalloy BOW36383 Hex Head Cap Screw 7/16-20 X 2 in

Product Description

The BOWMALLOY BOW36383 is a 7/16-20 hex head cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications. It measures 2 inches under the head and features partial threading, which provides a smooth shank section for improved shear resistance and precise clamping. The fastener is manufactured from Grade 9 steel and finished with BOWMALLOY Bowma-Guard zinc-plated clear chromate coating for corrosion resistance. This screw is installed by millwrights, industrial mechanics, and maintenance technicians working on equipment assemblies that demand reliable, high-torque fastening.

This cap screw is suited for industrial, commercial, and mechanical applications where a fine-thread 7/16-20 pattern is specified. Partial threading makes it well-suited for bolted assemblies requiring a grip-length shank, such as flanged connections, equipment mounting plates, and structural joint work. Grade 9 steel provides greater proof load and tensile strength than standard Grade 5 or Grade 8 fasteners, making it appropriate for high-stress environments.

Key Features

• Grade 9 steel construction for high proof load and tensile strength
• 7/16-20 fine-thread pattern for secure engagement in precision assemblies
• Partial threading provides a smooth shank for shear resistance and accurate clamping
• Bowma-Guard zinc-plated clear chromate finish for corrosion protection
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard SAE tooling

Compatibility

Designed as a high-strength replacement or service fastener for any application specifying a 7/16-20 x 2-inch partially threaded hex head cap screw in Grade 9 steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a standard SAE hex wrench or socket set sized for a 7/16-20 fastener. Follow the torque specifications defined by the equipment manufacturer or applicable engineering drawings for Grade 9 fasteners. Inspect the mating threaded hole for cleanliness and thread condition before installation. Do not mix Grade 9 fasteners with lower-grade hardware in a torque-critical joint without engineering review.
