Value Collection 2-H-100C-400 Hex Head Cap Screw 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2-H-100C-400 is a heavy-duty hex head cap screw engineered for demanding fastening applications. It measures 1-8 inch thread size with a 4-inch length under the head and is manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The partial threading design provides strong clamping force across a wide grip range. Weighing 1.11 pounds, this fastener is suited for structural, mechanical, and industrial assemblies where corrosion resistance and material integrity are critical. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance professionals install this screw wherever a reliable, corrosion-resistant hex fastener is required.

This cap screw is appropriate for use in marine, chemical processing, food service, and outdoor structural applications where exposure to moisture, salt air, or corrosive environments is a concern. Grade 316 stainless steel offers superior resistance to chloride-induced corrosion compared to 304-series alloys, making it a preferred choice for coastal installations and wet mechanical systems. Plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance crews commonly specify this fastener for flanged connections, equipment mounting, and structural bracketing.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for excellent corrosion and chloride resistance
• Partially threaded shank provides strong clamping force and accurate load distribution
• Bright uncoated finish ensures dimensional accuracy and consistent thread engagement
• Inch-series 1-8 thread size is compatible with standard SAE taps and hardware
• 1.11-pound weight reflects solid full-material construction suitable for structural duty

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw for use in applications requiring a 1-8 thread size and 4-inch grip length in Grade 316 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified tradespeople using appropriately rated hand or power tools sized for the hex drive. Always clean and inspect mating threads before installation to prevent galling, which is common with stainless steel fasteners. Apply an anti-seize compound rated for stainless steel to reduce the risk of thread seizing during torqueing. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer specifications for fastener torque and assembly sequence.
