Value Collection 011229P Hex Socket Cap Screw 5/16-24 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 011229P is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications across mechanical assembly, maintenance, and fabrication work. It features a 5/16-24 UNF thread size with a 3/4-inch length under head and is fully threaded from tip to head. The screw is machined from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating that provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection. Drive engagement is via a 1/4-inch hex socket drive. This fastener meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, making it suitable for demanding mechanical and structural fastening applications where precise thread engagement is required.

This fastener is used in a wide range of industrial, mechanical, and trade applications including HVAC equipment assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, plumbing fixture mounting, and general equipment maintenance. Its fully threaded, fine-pitch UNF profile makes it well suited for applications requiring tight thread engagement and higher clamp loads in thinner or harder materials. The black oxide finish is commonly used in environments where a low-profile, non-reflective fastener appearance is preferred. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians across multiple disciplines regularly use this style of fastener for both OEM-spec and field repair work.

Key Features

• 5/16-24 UNF fine-thread profile for high clamp load and precise engagement
• Fully threaded body along the entire 3/4-inch length under head
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile strength per ASTM A574
• Black oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance and low-reflectance appearance
• 1/4-inch hex socket drive compatible with standard hex keys and socket drivers
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 dimensional standards for socket cap screws

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hex socket cap screw suitable for any application requiring a 5/16-24 UNF fully threaded fastener with a 1/4-inch hex drive and 3/4-inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed with a properly sized 1/4-inch hex key or socket driver to avoid rounding the drive recess. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Follow applicable torque specifications from ASME or equipment manufacturer documentation for the specific joint material and fastener grade. This is a minimum order quantity item sold in multiples of 100.
