Value Collection 30563 Hex Head Cap Screw 7/16-14 X 1.5 in 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 30563 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for secure mechanical fastening in corrosion-demanding environments. Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel, this fastener delivers superior resistance to chlorides, salt spray, and chemical exposure compared to standard 304 stainless. The 7/16-14 UNC thread and 1.5-inch length under head make it a reliable choice for structural and equipment-mounting applications where thread engagement and material integrity are critical. It arrives uncoated, preserving the natural corrosion resistance of the 316 alloy. Installers in plumbing, HVAC, pool, and marine-adjacent trades routinely specify 316 stainless hardware for wet or outdoor service points.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial installations where fasteners are exposed to moisture, poolside chemical environments, or coastal conditions. Typical applications include securing equipment enclosures, pump mounts, pipe hangers, electrical panel brackets, and structural connections where long-term corrosion resistance is required. The UNC thread form is compatible with standard tapped holes and nuts machined to inch-standard specifications.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for enhanced chloride and chemical corrosion resistance
• 7/16-14 UNC thread form compatible with standard inch-series tapped holes and nuts
• 1.5-inch length under head provides solid thread engagement in typical panel and bracket stock
• Fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement across the full fastener length
• Uncoated finish preserves native 316 alloy corrosion resistance with no coating delamination risk
• Hex head drive accepts standard hex wrenches and sockets for high-torque installation

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose inch-series hex head cap screw for use in any application requiring a 7/16-14 UNC fully threaded fastener in Grade 316 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, plumbers, electricians, and HVAC mechanics using standard hex wrenches or socket drives sized for a 7/16-inch hex head. Fastener torque should be selected based on joint material, thread engagement depth, and applicable engineering specifications for Grade 316 stainless hardware. When installing into aluminum or dissimilar metals in wet environments, evaluate galvanic compatibility before final assembly. Confirm thread engagement meets the requirements of the applicable mechanical or structural code before placing the assembly into service.
