Value Collection 011369P Hex Socket Cap Screw 1/2-13 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 011369P is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength bolted connections in mechanical, structural, and industrial applications. It features a 1/2-13 UNC thread size and a 2-3/4 inch length under head with partial threading, making it suitable where thread engagement is needed only in the clamped material. The 3/8 inch hex drive accepts a standard hex key or Allen wrench. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this fastener offers solid tensile strength and moderate corrosion resistance in indoor or low-moisture environments. Installation is handled by mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and machinists working with precision equipment and assemblies.

This screw is used in general industrial machinery, tooling fixtures, equipment frames, and fabricated metal assemblies requiring a recessed-drive fastener with a low-profile cap head. The partially threaded shank provides a smooth bearing surface in clearance holes, which helps maintain alignment in multi-piece assemblies. It is commonly found in manufacturing plants, maintenance shops, and fabrication environments where ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 compliant fasteners are specified.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC thread size for standard inch-series bolted connections
• 2-3/4 inch length under head with partial threading for shank clearance fit
• 3/8 inch hex socket drive for use with Allen keys or hex bit drivers
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 high-strength requirements
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection
• Conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 compliant hex socket cap screw for use in any application accepting a 1/2-13 UNC partially threaded socket head cap screw with a 2-3/4 inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Install using a 3/8 inch hex key or hex socket bit driver; avoid using worn or undersized keys that can round the drive socket. Torque to the value specified by the assembly engineer or equipment manufacturer based on joint requirements. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Always de-energize and lockout equipment before accessing fastener locations on live machinery.
