Value Collection 402090PR Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-16 X 7/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 402090PR is a fully threaded hex head cap screw sized 3/8-16 x 7/8 inches, manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a bright uncoated finish. This fastener follows the Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standard and is measured by length under head. It is a general-purpose inch-series fastener suited for moderate-load structural and mechanical assembly applications. Machinists, maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and general contractors commonly use Grade 2 hex cap screws in light-duty framing, equipment mounting, and fixture assembly where high-tensile alloy grades are not required.

This hex head cap screw is appropriate for use in residential and commercial mechanical assemblies, equipment frames, brackets, and general hardware applications where UNC fasteners are specified. The 3/8-16 thread size is one of the most widely used coarse-thread pitches in inch-based mechanical work, making this screw compatible with standard 3/8-16 hex nuts and threaded inserts. It ships in single-unit packaging with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, making it practical for bulk jobsite use or shop stock replenishment.

Key Features

• Fully threaded along the 7/8-inch length under head for maximum thread engagement in thin material applications
• 3/8-16 UNC thread standard ensures compatibility with standard inch-series hardware
• Grade 2 steel provides adequate strength for light- to moderate-duty general assembly applications
• Bright uncoated finish — suitable for indoor or dry-environment use where corrosion protection is not required
• Inch system of measurement, length measured under head per standard fastener convention

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 3/8-16 UNC hex nuts, threaded inserts, and tapped holes following inch-series thread specifications. Suitable as a general replacement or stock fastener wherever a 3/8-16 x 7/8-inch fully threaded Grade 2 hex cap screw is called out.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard hex wrench or socket in the appropriate drive size for a 3/8-inch hex cap screw. Ensure the mating threaded component or tapped hole is clean and undamaged before installation. Grade 2 fasteners are not rated for high-tensile or safety-critical structural connections — verify load requirements before substituting for higher-grade hardware. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer specifications for torque requirements.
