Value Collection 34012 Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-16 X 2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 34012 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for general mechanical assembly and structural fastening applications. Manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener delivers solid tensile strength and corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light outdoor use. The 3/8-16 thread size conforms to the Unified National Coarse (UNC) standard, and the 2-inch length under head provides adequate grip for a wide range of clamping applications. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical contractors routinely stock fasteners of this type for equipment mounting, panel assembly, and bracket installation.

This screw is suited for residential and commercial trade applications where a reliable UNC-standard hex head fastener is required. Fully threaded along the shank, it allows maximum thread engagement across the full clamp length, which is especially useful when fastening through thinner stock or when a nut and washer combination is used. Sold in packages of 50, this fastener is appropriate for both job-site stocking and shop inventory replenishment.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 UNC thread provides wide compatibility with standard nuts, inserts, and tapped holes
• Fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement across the full 2-inch length under head
• Grade 5 steel construction meets recognized tensile strength requirements for medium-duty structural fastening
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty outdoor environments
• Packaged in quantities of 50 for efficient job-site and shop inventory use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC hex head cap screw compatible with any 3/8-16 threaded nut, tapped hole, or insert conforming to Unified National Coarse thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical and trade professionals using standard hex wrenches or sockets sized for a 3/8-inch hex head fastener. Always ensure the mating thread or tapped hole is clean and free of debris before installation. Do not exceed the rated torque range for Grade 5 fasteners as specified by applicable mechanical codes or equipment manufacturer documentation. Inspect for thread damage before reuse.
