Value Collection 403242BR Hex Cap Screw 5/8-11 X 3-3/4 in Grade 2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 403242BR is a partially threaded hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose fastening applications across mechanical, structural, and industrial assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it provides basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty outdoor use. The screw follows Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standards at a 5/8-11 thread size with a 3-3/4 inch length under head. A 15/16 inch hex key size accommodates standard combination wrenches and sockets. Partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to bear shear loads, making it appropriate where precise joint clamping is needed.

This fastener is used in general mechanical assembly, equipment maintenance, and light structural work where a Grade 2 steel UNC hex cap screw is specified. Typical install scenarios include machinery frames, brackets, and fabricated steel assemblies. It is appropriate for indoor environments or protected applications where moderate corrosion resistance from the zinc plating is sufficient. Tradespeople in HVAC equipment assembly, plumbing fixture mounting, and general mechanical maintenance commonly use this fastener size.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and nuts
• 3-3/4 inch length under head accommodates thicker material stacks
• Partial threading allows unthreaded shank to carry shear loads in bolted joints
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for light-duty environments
• Grade 2 steel construction meets general-purpose fastener requirements
• 15/16 inch hex drive fits standard wrenches and sockets

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose UNC hex head cap screw suitable for use in any application specifying a 5/8-11 x 3-3/4 inch Grade 2 partially threaded fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard 15/16 inch combination wrench, box wrench, or socket. Apply fastener torque according to the Grade 2 specification listed in the applicable engineering or equipment service documentation. Ensure mating threads in the receiving nut or tapped hole are clean and undamaged before assembly. Do not exceed the rated grade load limits by substituting this fastener in joints specifying a higher grade.
