Bowmalloy BOWMP36360 Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-24 X 2.5 in

Product Description

The BOWMALLOY BOWMP36360 is a Grade 9 steel hex head cap screw with a 3/8-24 thread size and a 2.5-inch length under head. It features partial threading and a Bowma-Guard protective finish. Grade 9 alloy steel delivers high tensile strength suited for demanding fastener applications in industrial, mechanical, and structural assemblies. The Bowma-Guard finish provides corrosion resistance, making this screw appropriate for both indoor and outdoor service environments. Installation requires a standard hex drive tool or wrench. This fastener is sold in packages of 25 units.

This hex head cap screw is used in a wide range of mechanical and structural applications where a fine-thread, high-strength fastener is required. The 3/8-24 unified national fine (UNF) thread pattern provides greater tensile strength and finer adjustment capability compared to coarse-thread equivalents. Partial threading is standard for longer fasteners and allows the unthreaded shank to bear shear loads. Typical installation scenarios include equipment mounting, machinery assembly, and structural connections across industrial and commercial settings.

Key Features

• Grade 9 steel construction for high tensile strength in demanding applications
• 3/8-24 UNF fine thread for precise engagement and strong clamping force
• Partial threading allows unthreaded shank to absorb shear loads
• Bowma-Guard finish provides corrosion resistance for extended service life
• Hex head design compatible with standard hex drive tools and wrenches
• Sold in packages of 25 for convenient job-site stocking

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fastener for industrial, mechanical, and structural assemblies requiring a 3/8-24 UNF Grade 9 hex head cap screw with partial threading.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical and maintenance technicians using a standard hex wrench or socket driver. Always de-energize and lock out equipment before fastener replacement in powered assemblies. Apply fastener torque per the equipment manufacturer specifications for the 3/8-24 thread class. Follow applicable ASME or industry fastener standards for proper seating and preload.
