Value Collection 208929C Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-16 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 208929C is a 3/8-16 x 1-1/2-inch hex head cap screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. This fastener features a Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread form and a 9/16-inch hex drive head. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides solid corrosion resistance in wet, outdoor, and light chemical environments. It is suitable for general mechanical assembly, HVAC equipment mounting, plumbing fixture installation, and electrical enclosure work. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians across multiple trades install this type of fastener in everyday service and installation applications.

This screw is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial applications where corrosion resistance is required. Common installation scenarios include mounting brackets, securing access panels, assembling equipment frames, and fastening components in humid or outdoor-adjacent environments. The 3/8-16 thread size is a standard coarse-thread diameter widely used in mechanical and trade applications.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor conditions
• 3/8-16 UNC thread form — standard coarse thread, widely compatible with nuts and tapped holes
• 1-1/2-inch length under head for versatile fastening depth
• 9/16-inch hex head drive — fits standard hex wrenches and sockets

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8-16 UNC hex head cap screw for use in any application requiring an inch-series coarse-thread fastener in 18-8 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install using a 9/16-inch hex wrench or socket. Power down or de-energize any equipment before fastening into electrical enclosures or HVAC components. Do not mix stainless steel fasteners with carbon steel hardware in the same assembly, as galvanic corrosion may result in dissimilar metal contact situations. Follow applicable mechanical and equipment codes for proper fastener torque guidance specific to the assembly being serviced.
