Value Collection 45772 Fully Threaded Stud 3/8-16 1-3/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 45772 is a fully threaded stud with a 3/8-16 Unified Coarse thread form and an overall length of 1-3/4 inches. Made from 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated plain finish, this stud provides corrosion resistance suitable for general fastening applications in mechanical, plumbing, and light structural assemblies. It is fully threaded from end to end, allowing engagement along its entire length for flexible mounting depth and nut positioning. Installers working in wet, humid, or chemically active environments will find the stainless construction appropriate where carbon steel fasteners are prone to premature corrosion.

This stud is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial trade applications where a 3/8-16 threaded connection is required. Common install scenarios include equipment mounting, pipe flange fastening, HVAC component attachment, and general mechanical assembly work. The 3/8-16 thread size is a widely used coarse-thread standard, compatible with 3/8-16 hex nuts, coupling nuts, and threaded inserts available from most trade suppliers.

Key Features

• Fully threaded along entire 1-3/4 inch length for maximum engagement flexibility
• 3/8-16 Unified Coarse thread form — widely used standard in trade and mechanical applications
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• Uncoated plain finish — no plating that can chip or react with certain fluids
• UNSPSC Code 31161618 for procurement and catalog classification

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock fastener for any assembly requiring a 3/8-16 fully threaded stud in 18-8 stainless steel at 1-3/4 inches overall length.

Installation Notes

Threaded studs should be installed by a qualified technician familiar with fastener torque requirements for the application. Always de-energize or shut off pressure to the assembly before removing or replacing fasteners in pressurized or energized systems. Use a calibrated torque wrench and refer to the equipment manufacturer's torque specifications for the joint. Avoid mixing stainless steel fasteners with dissimilar metals in environments where galvanic corrosion is a concern.
