Value Collection -34696-3/4 Flange Bolt 5/16-18 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -34696-3/4 is an alloy steel flange bolt designed for industrial and mechanical fastening applications. It features a 5/16-18 UNC thread and a 3/4-inch length under head, with a 12-point drive configuration that allows for high-torque installation in confined spaces. The plain finish leaves the steel uncoated, making it suitable for use in dry environments or where a secondary coating will be applied. This bolt conforms to ASME B18.3 standards and is sold in a package quantity of 10 units, covering small-batch service and repair needs.

This flange bolt is suited for general mechanical assemblies, equipment repair, and light structural fastening tasks in industrial, HVAC, and trade service environments. The integrated flange distributes clamping load across a wider bearing surface without requiring a separate washer, reducing hardware count and improving joint stability. Installers working on compressor mounts, bracket assemblies, fan housings, and similar metal-to-metal connections will find this bolt a direct-fit option at the 5/16-18 UNC specification.

Key Features

• 5/16-18 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes
• 3/4-inch length under head for precise engagement depth in typical fastening applications
• 12-point drive allows higher torque transfer in tight clearance situations
• Integrated flange eliminates the need for a separate flat washer
• Alloy steel construction provides strength over low-carbon alternatives
• Conforms to ASME B18.3 dimensional and performance standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fastener for mechanical assemblies requiring a 5/16-18 UNC flange bolt with a 3/4-inch length under head and ASME B18.3 compliance.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians or trade professionals using a 12-point socket or box wrench. Always de-energize equipment and relieve any system pressure before disassembling fastened joints. Verify thread engagement depth and mating material compatibility before final torque. Do not install plain-finish alloy steel bolts in corrosive or outdoor environments without an appropriate protective coating or thread-locking compound as specified by the equipment manufacturer.
