Value Collection 011261P Hex Socket Cap Screw 3/8-16 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 011261P is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications where a recessed drive profile is required. Sized at 3/8-16 UNC with a 1-3/4 inch length under head, this screw is partially threaded and driven with a 5/16 inch hex key. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers solid corrosion resistance and maintains mechanical integrity under load. It meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, making it a reliable choice for precision assemblies in mechanical, HVAC, and industrial service work.

This fastener is suited for use in structural and mechanical assemblies where a flush or recessed fastener head is needed. The partial threading allows the shank to bear shear loads while the threaded section engages the mating material securely. Typical applications include equipment mounting, bracket attachment, and component assembly in trade and industrial environments. The black oxide coating reduces surface corrosion and minimizes light reflection in service settings.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 UNC thread size for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 1-3/4 inch length under head with partial threading for shear load capability
• 5/16 inch hex socket drive for use with standard hex keys or socket drivers
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 mechanical requirements
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and low-glare appearance
• Conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8-16 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring an ASME/ANSI B18.3 compliant fastener with a 5/16 inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 5/16 inch hex key or socket driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. Do not exceed the rated torque for 3/8-16 alloy steel fasteners as specified by the applicable engineering standard for the assembly. Thread engagement and torque requirements should comply with the equipment manufacturer specifications or applicable mechanical codes.
