Value Collection 403252BR Hex Cap Screw 5/8-11 X 6 in Grade 2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 403252BR is a partially threaded hex head cap screw sized 5/8-11 x 6 inches, manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance. The UNC thread standard and 5/8-11 thread size make this fastener a common choice for general-purpose mechanical assemblies. At 0.55 pounds per unit, this screw is suited for medium-duty structural and equipment connections where high-strength alloy grades are not required. Installation requires a 15/16-inch hex key or wrench. Trade professionals in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical service will recognize this as a standard stock fastener for equipment mounting, brackets, and framing connections.

This hex head cap screw is intended for general mechanical and structural applications in both residential and light commercial settings. The partial thread design provides a smooth shank section beneath the head, which is preferred in applications where the fastener passes through a clearance hole before engaging a tapped hole or nut. It is commonly used when assembling equipment frames, mounting panels, attaching brackets, and securing mechanical components where Grade 2 steel meets the load requirements.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC thread size for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and nuts
• 6-inch length under head provides extended reach for thick material stacks or deep clearance applications
• Partially threaded shank offers a smooth grip section for precise clamping in clearance-hole assemblies
• Grade 2 steel construction meets general-purpose strength requirements without the cost of alloy grades
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered outdoor use
• 15/16-inch hex drive fits standard wrenches and sockets commonly found in trade toolkits

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose UNC hex head cap screw compatible with standard 5/8-11 tapped holes, nuts, and threaded inserts in steel, aluminum, and similar structural materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical trades using standard combination wrenches, box-end wrenches, or socket sets sized to 15/16 inches. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize where dissimilar metals or corrosive environments are a concern. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer torque guidelines for the specific assembly.
