Value Collection 592369PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 7/16-14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 592369PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening in mechanical, industrial, and structural assemblies. It features a 7/16-14 UNC thread size and a 2.5-inch length under head, making it suitable for medium-depth fastening applications. The screw is partially threaded and driven with a 3/8-inch hex key. Constructed from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2), it provides solid corrosion resistance in wet or chemically active environments. The bright, uncoated finish keeps dimensional tolerances tight and is compatible with standard 7/16-14 threaded holes and inserts.

This cap screw is used across a wide range of trade and industrial applications including HVAC equipment assembly, plumbing fixture mounting, electrical enclosure fastening, and general mechanical maintenance. Its stainless steel construction makes it well suited for environments exposed to moisture, mild chemicals, or outdoor conditions. The partially threaded shank provides clamping strength at the joint interface, which is preferred in applications where the fastener passes through a clearance hole before engaging a threaded bore. Machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and general contractors commonly install this type of hardware.

Key Features

• 7/16-14 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard inch-series threaded holes
• 2.5-inch length under head suits medium-depth clamping applications
• Partially threaded shank delivers strong clamping force through clearance holes
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2) offers corrosion resistance in wet environments
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains precise dimensional tolerances
• Conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or maintenance fastener for any application requiring a 7/16-14 UNC hex socket cap screw with a 2.5-inch length under head in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 3/8-inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure the mating threaded hole or nut is clean and free of debris before driving. Do not mix stainless steel fasteners with dissimilar metals in high-galvanic environments without appropriate isolation. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize compound as needed to prevent galling, which is common with stainless steel fasteners.
