Value Collection 207825B Hex Head Cap Screw 5/16-18 X 7/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 207825B is a hex head cap screw designed for general fastening applications where corrosion resistance is required. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, this fastener features a 5/16-18 Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread and a length under head of 7/8 inches. The 1/2-inch hex drive accepts standard hex wrenches and sockets for secure installation. This screw is a practical choice for trade and industrial settings where exposure to moisture or mild chemicals makes carbon steel fasteners unsuitable. Licensed tradespeople and experienced installers use these in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical enclosure assemblies alike.

This fastener is suited for light structural, equipment mounting, and panel assembly applications across residential and commercial trades. The UNC thread form is the standard for inch-series fastening in North American systems, making this screw compatible with the vast majority of tapped holes and nuts in that thread standard. It is commonly used in sheet metal enclosures, brackets, pump housings, and similar applications where a removable, corrosion-resistant connection is needed. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 units per order.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and mildly corrosive environments
• 5/16-18 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes and hex nuts
• 7/8-inch length under head suits medium-depth fastening applications
• 1/2-inch hex drive accepts common wrenches and sockets
• Inch measurement system for direct use in standard North American fastener applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw for use in any application requiring a 5/16-18 UNC thread fastener with an 18-8 stainless steel material grade.

Installation Notes

Install using a properly sized 1/2-inch hex wrench or socket driver. De-energize and isolate any equipment before accessing fastener locations on electrical or HVAC enclosures. Do not mix stainless steel fasteners with dissimilar metals in environments where galvanic corrosion is a concern. Apply anti-seize compound to threads when stainless-to-stainless contact is present to prevent galling during torquing.
