Value Collection 208802B Hex Head Cap Screw 1/2-13 X 4.5in 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 208802B is a hex head cap screw designed for general fastening applications requiring corrosion resistance. It features a 1/2-13 Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread and a 4-1/2 inch length under head. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel, this fastener resists rust and oxidation in wet, chemical-exposed, and outdoor environments. The 3/4 inch hex drive head accepts standard wrenches and sockets. Installers working in plumbing, HVAC equipment mounting, electrical enclosures, and light structural assemblies reach for this grade when carbon steel would corrode prematurely.

This screw suits residential and commercial trade applications where a durable, corrosion-resistant threaded fastener is required. Common install scenarios include securing equipment flanges, pipe hangers, access panels, junction boxes, and structural brackets. The UNC thread form is the standard inch-series coarse thread, making mating nuts and tapped holes widely available across job sites and supply houses.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion and oxidation resistance
• 1/2-13 UNC thread for wide compatibility with standard inch-series nuts and tapped holes
• 4-1/2 inch length under head accommodates thicker assemblies and stacked materials
• 3/4 inch hex head accepts common wrenches and sockets for fast installation
• Inch measurement system for straightforward sizing in standard trade applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-13 UNC hex head cap screw suitable for use with any 1/2-13 threaded nut or tapped hole conforming to Unified National Coarse thread standards.

Installation Notes

This fastener is installed by any trade requiring mechanical assembly, including HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work. Verify thread engagement depth and mating nut grade before final assembly. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize compound when joining stainless fasteners to stainless nuts to prevent galling. Torque to the value specified by the equipment manufacturer or applicable structural standard for 1/2-13 fasteners in the intended load condition.
