Value Collection 402326BR Hex Head Cap Screw Grade 2

Product Description

The Value Collection 402326BR is a partially threaded hex head cap screw engineered for general-purpose fastening applications in the inch measurement system. This fastener measures 1-8 thread size with a 4-1/2 inch length under the head and is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standard provides reliable engagement in standard tapped holes and nuts. This screw is a staple fastener used by mechanics, pipefitters, ironworkers, electricians, and general contractors wherever a dependable mid-strength hex cap screw is required.

This fastener is suited for a wide range of light-to-medium structural and mechanical assembly tasks in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. The partial threading allows for precise clamping force across non-threaded shank sections, making it appropriate for bolted joint assemblies where shank alignment and load distribution matter. The bright, uncoated surface is best suited for interior or dry-environment installations where corrosion exposure is minimal.

Key Features

• Grade 2 steel construction provides sufficient tensile strength for general-purpose bolted connections
• Partially threaded shank offers improved load distribution and alignment in bolted assemblies
• UNC thread standard ensures compatibility with standard inch-system nuts, inserts, and tapped holes
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for dry or interior applications
• Inch measurement system; 1-8 thread size at 4-1/2 inches length under head

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard UNC inch-series nuts and tapped holes at 1-8 thread pitch. Suitable for general mechanical and structural bolted assemblies requiring a partially threaded Grade 2 hex cap screw.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench, socket set, or impact driver sized to the hex head. Verify thread pitch and hole size with a thread gauge before installation to avoid cross-threading. Torque to values appropriate for Grade 2 fasteners as referenced in standard fastener torque tables for the application. Always de-energize or isolate associated equipment before performing fastener work on mechanical or electrical enclosures.
