Value Collection 015323PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 7/16-14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 015323PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and structural components. It features a 7/16-14 UNC thread size with a 2-inch length under head and a partially threaded shank, which allows for controlled clamping force and load distribution across joined materials. The screw is machined from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating that provides moderate corrosion resistance and reduces surface glare. Drive engagement is via a 3/8-inch hex socket. This fastener is installed by machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and mechanical contractors across industrial and commercial applications.

This cap screw is suited for use in machine frames, jigs, tooling plates, equipment housings, and general-purpose mechanical assemblies where a recessed drive head is required to sit flush or below the work surface. The partial threading suits through-bolt and tapped-hole configurations where thread engagement is needed only at the receiving end. It conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3, ASTM A574, and IFI 124 standards, making it appropriate for applications demanding dimensional and mechanical compliance with these fastener specifications.

Key Features

• 7/16-14 UNC thread size for standard unified coarse thread engagement
• 2-inch length under head with partial threading for controlled clamping in tapped applications
• 3/8-inch hex socket drive for high torque input with standard hex keys or socket drivers
• Alloy steel construction provides high tensile strength suitable for structural fastening
• Black oxide finish offers mild corrosion resistance and a low-reflectance surface
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3, ASTM A574, and IFI 124 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style and general-purpose replacement or specification-grade hex socket cap screw for mechanical assemblies requiring 7/16-14 UNC threading and conformance to ASME/ANSI B18.3, ASTM A574, or IFI 124 standards.

Installation Notes

Install using a calibrated 3/8-inch hex key or socket driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is clean and free of debris before threading. Do not exceed the rated drive engagement depth for the tapped material to avoid thread stripping. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for torque and fastener spacing requirements on the specific assembly being serviced.
