Value Collection 30087 Hex Head Cap Screw 7/16-14 3 in Grade 5

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 30087 is a 7/16-14 hex head cap screw designed for general mechanical fastening in trade and industrial applications. Manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this screw delivers solid tensile strength and corrosion resistance suitable for both indoor and outdoor assemblies. The partially threaded shank measures 3 inches under the head with a 7/16-14 UNC thread profile, making it compatible with standard inch-series tapped holes and nuts. Sold in a package of 25, this fastener is a practical choice for HVAC brackets, mechanical equipment mounting, plumbing supports, and structural assemblies where a reliable inch-system fastener is required.

This cap screw is used across residential and light commercial trade work wherever a 7/16-14 UNC bolt is specified. Typical applications include equipment mounting frames, ductwork support hardware, pump and motor bases, electrical enclosure mounting, and general structural assembly. The Grade 5 rating makes it appropriate for moderate-load connections that call for a step up from standard Grade 2 hardware. The zinc-plated finish provides a baseline level of corrosion protection for non-immersion environments. Installers working in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades will find this fastener useful for routine equipment service and new installations.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed for use in any application requiring a 7/16-14 UNC hex head cap screw with a 3-inch length under head, Grade 5 steel construction, and zinc-plated finish.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard hex wrench or socket sized for a 7/16-14 fastener. De-energize and lock out any equipment before fastening hardware to electrical enclosures, motor mounts, or powered assemblies. Apply fasteners to properly tapped or through-hole clearance configurations and avoid cross-threading by starting all fasteners by hand before applying torque. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines and relevant mechanical codes for fastener torque class and installation sequence.
