Value Collection 307232BR Hex Socket Cap Screw 1-8 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 307232BR is a fully threaded hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications. It features a 1-8 UNC thread and measures 2.5 inches in length under the head, with a 5/8-inch hex drive. Manufactured from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating, it meets ASTM A574 standards for mechanical properties and dimensional accuracy. Licensed trades and industrial technicians install this fastener anywhere a reliable, high-torque socket cap screw is required. The black oxide finish provides moderate corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection in service environments.

This fastener is suited for general industrial, mechanical, and structural assembly applications where a recessed hex drive is required for torque control and clearance. It is appropriate for use in machine frames, jigs, fixtures, and equipment housings. The 1-8 UNC coarse thread is compatible with standard UNC tapped holes and is commonly used in steel and ferrous metal assemblies. It installs with a 5/8-inch hex key or socket driver and is sold individually.

Key Features

• 1-8 UNC coarse thread for use in standard tapped holes in steel and ferrous metals
• 2.5-inch length under head for deep-reach fastening applications
• 5/8-inch hex drive for high-torque installation with a hex key or socket driver
• Fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement along the full fastener length
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 mechanical strength requirements
• Black oxide finish provides moderate corrosion resistance and reduces surface glare

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fastener for any application requiring a 1-8 UNC fully threaded hex socket cap screw conforming to ASTM A574.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, millwrights, and mechanical technicians using a calibrated torque wrench with a 5/8-inch hex bit. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. De-energize and lock out all equipment before replacing fasteners on live machinery. Do not exceed the rated proof load for ASTM A574 alloy steel fasteners as defined by the applicable engineering specification.
