Value Collection 208774 Hex Head Cap Screw 1/2-13x2 in 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 208774 is a hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose mechanical fastening in a wide range of industrial, commercial, and maintenance applications. It features a 1/2-13 UNC (Unified National Coarse) thread form and a 2-inch length under head, providing strong clamping force in standard imperial thread applications. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, it offers reliable corrosion resistance in moist, chemical-exposed, or outdoor environments. The 3/4-inch hex drive head is compatible with standard wrenches and sockets. This fastener is appropriate for structural connections, equipment assembly, and maintenance repairs where corrosion resistance is a priority.

This screw is suited for use in HVAC equipment mounting, plumbing system assemblies, electrical enclosure fabrication, pool and spa equipment installations, and general mechanical maintenance. Its coarse UNC thread provides good engagement in both tapped metal and standard nuts. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it a practical choice for applications subject to moisture, mild chemicals, or outdoor exposure, including rooftop mechanical equipment and pool deck hardware.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC coarse thread for reliable engagement in standard tapped holes and nuts
• 2-inch length under head for substantial clamping depth in structural and mechanical assemblies
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and chemically exposed environments
• 3/4-inch hex head compatible with standard wrench and socket tooling
• Inch measurement system for direct use with imperial hardware and tapped components

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-13 UNC hex head cap screw compatible with any application requiring a 1/2-13 coarse thread fastener with a 2-inch grip length in 18-8 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians and trade professionals using a standard 3/4-inch open-end wrench, box wrench, or socket. Apply appropriate thread lubricant or anti-seize compound when fastening stainless steel to stainless steel components to prevent galling. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before assembly. Follow applicable torque guidelines for 1/2-13 stainless steel fasteners as specified in your project or equipment documentation.
