It features a 1\/2-20 UNF thread size and measures 1-1\/4 inches in length under the head. The screw is fully threaded and driven with a 3\/8-inch hex key. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers solid corrosion resistance and surface hardness. This type of fastener is commonly installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals working in manufacturing, equipment repair, and general industrial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is suited for use in machinery, fixtures, jigs, and mechanical assemblies where a flush or recessed fastener head is required. The 1\/2-20 UNF thread pitch is a fine-thread designation, making it appropriate for applications that require tighter thread engagement and reduced vibration loosening compared to coarse-thread alternatives. The black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and controlled-environment use. This fastener meets ASME\/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, confirming it is manufactured to recognized dimensional and mechanical property requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-20 UNF fine thread for strong thread engagement and vibration resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFully threaded shaft along the 1-1\/4-inch length under head\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch hex drive for use with standard hex keys or Allen wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlloy steel construction for high tensile strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME\/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard ASME\/ANSI B18.3 hex socket cap screw suitable for mechanical assemblies and industrial equipment that accept a 1\/2-20 UNF fully threaded fastener with a 3\/8-inch hex drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall using a 3\/8-inch hex key or Allen driver sized to the socket recess.
