Value Collection 207683B Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-16 X 3/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 207683B is a 3/8-16 hex head cap screw designed for general mechanical fastening in industrial, commercial, and trade applications. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, it provides reliable corrosion resistance in wet, outdoor, or mildly chemical environments. The screw measures 3/4 inches in length under the head and features a 9/16-inch hex drive. The Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread pattern ensures broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and nuts. HVAC, plumbing, and electrical contractors frequently use this fastener size when assembling equipment panels, brackets, and structural connections where stainless hardware is specified.

This fastener is suited for residential and commercial applications where mild corrosion resistance is required. Common install scenarios include securing equipment housings, mounting brackets, pipe supports, and structural framing components. The 3/8-16 UNC thread size is one of the most widely used coarse-thread specifications in North American mechanical and trade work, making this screw a standard stock item for service vehicles and job-site inventory. It is sold individually but is subject to a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Installation Notes

Install using a 9/16-inch open-end wrench, combination wrench, or socket driver. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before driving. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur; applying an anti-seize compound is a common field practice. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer torque guidelines for the specific assembly.
