Value Collection 592423BR Hex Socket Cap Screw 5/8-11 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 592423BR is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening in mechanical, structural, and industrial assembly applications. Featuring a 5/8-11 UNC thread size and a 5-inch length under head, this screw is partially threaded to allow for proper clamping force in bolted joint applications. The 1/2-inch hex drive socket head accepts standard hex keys or socket drivers. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, the fastener offers solid corrosion resistance for general-purpose and light-duty marine or wet environments. Licensed trades and maintenance technicians rely on this fastener format across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical installations.

This socket cap screw suits a wide range of industrial and commercial assembly scenarios where a recessed-drive fastener is required for clearance-restricted spaces. The partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to bear shear loads, making it appropriate for bolted connections where alignment and load distribution matter. It is commonly installed in equipment frames, motor mounts, brackets, and mechanical housings across residential and commercial service environments.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC thread size for wide compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes
• 5-inch length under head accommodates thicker stack-ups and deep-grip applications
• Partially threaded shank provides shear-load resistance and accurate joint alignment
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2) offers corrosion resistance without plating
• Bright, uncoated finish meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 fastener standards
• 1/2-inch hex socket drive compatible with standard hex keys and socket drive tools

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or general-use socket cap screw for applications requiring a 5/8-11 UNC partially threaded hex socket fastener in stainless steel per ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic, millwright, or service technician using a calibrated hex key or socket driver sized to 1/2 inch. De-energize and lock out all equipment before fastener removal or installation. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize compound as appropriate for the service environment to prevent galling, which is a known risk with stainless steel fasteners. Follow applicable torque specifications from the equipment manufacturer or relevant ASME standards for the joint being assembled.
