Value Collection 403232BR Hex Head Cap Screw 5/8-11 2-1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 403232BR is a partially threaded hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose fastening applications in mechanical, structural, and industrial assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener measures 5/8-11 thread size with a 2-1/2 inch length under the head. The zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty outdoor use. The partial threading allows for a smooth shank section that can bear shear loads, making it appropriate for bolted joints where clamping force and shank integrity both matter. Installation requires a 15/16-inch hex wrench or socket.

This cap screw is suited for residential construction, light fabrication, equipment assembly, and maintenance repair operations where Grade 2 steel meets the load and torque requirements of the application. The UNC (Unified National Coarse) thread standard ensures broad compatibility with standard nuts and tapped holes in inch-measurement systems. Typical users include millwrights, maintenance technicians, fabricators, and general contractors working with standard inch-system hardware.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard inch-system hardware
• 2-1/2 inch length under head measured per standard length-under-head convention
• Partially threaded shank supports shear loading in bolted joint applications
• Grade 2 steel construction suitable for general-purpose, non-structural fastening
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for light-duty environments
• 15/16-inch hex drive size compatible with standard sockets and wrenches

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-system UNC hex head cap screw compatible with 5/8-11 threaded nuts, inserts, and tapped holes conforming to Unified National Coarse thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician or tradesperson familiar with fastener torque requirements for Grade 2 hardware. Always verify thread engagement depth and mating material specifications before applying load. Do not exceed the rated capacity of Grade 2 fasteners in high-stress or safety-critical structural connections where Grade 5 or Grade 8 hardware may be required. Use a calibrated torque wrench for applications where joint preload is specified by the equipment manufacturer or applicable code.
