Holo-krome 72198 Hex Socket Cap Screw 7/16-14 Unc

Product Description

The HOLO-KROME 72198 is a fully threaded hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength mechanical fastening in industrial, commercial, and trade applications. It features a 7/16-14 UNC thread size and a 1-1/2 inch length under head, with a 3/8 inch hex drive socket. Manufactured from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating, this fastener delivers solid corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection in service environments. It conforms to ASME B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, making it a reliable choice where dimensional and strength specifications matter. Machinists, millwrights, and field service technicians commonly install this type of fastener.

This hex socket cap screw is suited for use in machinery assembly, equipment mounting, and structural fastening where a recessed drive is required to clear surrounding components. The 7/16-14 UNC coarse thread provides strong holding power in steel, cast iron, and similar base materials. The black oxide finish is appropriate for both indoor and moderately controlled outdoor environments. This fastener is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 50 units, which aligns with typical shop stock and maintenance inventory purchasing.

Key Features

• 7/16-14 UNC fully threaded for maximum thread engagement across the grip length
• 1-1/2 inch length under head fits standard clearance and through-hole fastening applications
• 3/8 inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen keys and socket drivers
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 high-strength fastener requirements
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces surface glare
• Conforms to ASME B18.3 dimensional standard for socket head cap screws

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ASME B18.3 hex socket cap screw suitable for use in any application requiring a 7/16-14 UNC fully threaded fastener with a 3/8 inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

This fastener is typically installed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a 3/8 inch hex key or socket driver. Always ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before installation. Do not mix with metric fasteners or damaged threads, as cross-threading alloy steel hardware can compromise joint integrity. Follow applicable torque guidelines from the equipment manufacturer or a recognized fastener standard when tightening.
