Value Collection 39058 Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-16 X 2 in Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 39058 is a 3/8-16 x 2-inch hex head cap screw manufactured from Grade 8 steel with a zinc yellow dichromate finish. Grade 8 steel delivers high tensile strength suited for demanding fastening applications where standard hardware grades are insufficient. The partial threading and UNC thread form comply with ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards, making this screw a reliable choice for structural, mechanical, and equipment assembly work. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians across multiple industries install these fasteners in high-load joints requiring consistent clamp force and corrosion resistance.

This hex head cap screw is suited for use in industrial machinery, heavy equipment, steel fabrication, and general mechanical assembly where Grade 8 strength and inch-series UNC threading are specified. The zinc yellow dichromate finish provides moderate corrosion protection in environments exposed to moisture or mild chemical contact. Each order contains 50 screws, making this item appropriate for production runs, maintenance stock, or repetitive fastening tasks where consistent hardware specs are required across multiple connection points.

Key Features

• Grade 8 steel construction for high tensile and proof load strength
• 3/8-16 UNC thread form with partial threading per ASME B18.2.1
• Zinc yellow dichromate finish for moderate corrosion resistance
• 2-inch length under head for deep-engagement fastening applications
• Hex drive head accepts standard 9/16-inch wrenching tools
• Sold in a 50-piece package for efficient stocking and production use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw for use in any application calling for a 3/8-16 UNC x 2-inch Grade 8 partially threaded fastener conforming to ASME B18.2.1.

Installation Notes

Installation of Grade 8 fasteners is typically performed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, or mechanical contractors using calibrated torque wrenches to achieve proper clamp load. Always verify that the mating thread (nut or tapped hole) is rated for Grade 8 loads before installation. Follow applicable industry standards and equipment manufacturer specifications for torque values specific to the joint design. Inspect threads for damage and ensure surfaces are clean and free of debris before assembly.
