Value Collection 2-S-37C-350 Hex Socket Cap Screw 3/8-16

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2-S-37C-350 is a partially threaded hex socket cap screw designed for fastening applications that require a clean, recessed drive and reliable holding strength. The screw features a 3/8-16 thread size and measures 3.5 inches in length under the head. Constructed from stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it resists corrosion in both indoor and outdoor environments. The hex socket drive requires an Allen key or hex bit, allowing high torque application in tight or recessed spaces. This fastener weighs approximately 0.13 pounds and is sold individually.

This cap screw is suited for mechanical assembly, equipment mounting, and structural fastening tasks across industrial, commercial, and trade applications. The 3/8-16 coarse thread pattern provides strong engagement in a wide range of base materials. Partial threading leaves a smooth shank section beneath the head, which improves shear resistance and helps align mating components. It is commonly used by millwrights, pipefitters, HVAC equipment installers, and general mechanical contractors.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 coarse thread for strong engagement in standard tapped holes
• 3.5 inches length under head with partial threading for improved shear load performance
• Stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance without additional coating
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy at the thread interface
• Hex socket drive accepts standard Allen keys and hex bits for high-torque installation

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or replacement fastener for applications requiring a 3/8-16 partially threaded hex socket cap screw in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanical technician or tradesperson using an appropriately sized hex key or socket bit. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. De-energize and lock out any equipment before replacing fasteners on live machinery in accordance with applicable OSHA lockout/tagout requirements. Do not exceed the rated torque range for the thread size and material as specified by applicable fastener standards.
