Value Collection 208753 Hex Head Cap Screw 18-8 Ss Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 208753 is a 1/8-8 UNC hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose fastening in corrosion-sensitive environments. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, this fastener delivers strong resistance to rust, oxidation, and many common chemicals. The screw measures 5 inches under the head and features a 1-1/2 inch hex drive. It is sized and threaded to UNC (Unified National Coarse) standards, making it a standard-compatible fastener for use across mechanical, plumbing, HVAC, and structural trade applications where stainless hardware is specified.

This hex head cap screw is suited for residential and light commercial installations where corrosion resistance is required. Common applications include equipment mounting, bracket assembly, and structural connections in humid, wet, or chemically active environments such as mechanical rooms, pool equipment enclosures, and outdoor HVAC platforms. Tradespeople working with stainless fastener specifications will find this screw matches typical UNC thread engagement requirements for standard tapped holes and nuts.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion and oxidation resistance
• 5-inch length under head suits deep fastening applications
• UNC thread standard ensures broad compatibility with standard nuts and tapped holes
• 1-1/2 inch hex head accommodates standard wrenches and sockets
• Inch measurement system; no metric conversion required for UNC applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC hex head cap screw for use with 1-8 UNC threaded nuts, inserts, and tapped holes in stainless steel, steel, and other materials where 18-8 stainless fasteners are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical and general trade technicians using standard hex wrenches or sockets sized for a 1-1/2 inch head. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing fastener locations on electrical or HVAC components. Apply appropriate anti-seize compound when threading stainless fasteners into stainless tapped holes to prevent galling. Follow applicable mechanical codes for torque and fastener specifications relevant to the assembly.
