Threaded at 3\/8-16 UNC, it features a 1-inch length under head and accepts a 5\/16-inch hex drive. The fastener is manufactured from 316 stainless steel, which provides superior resistance to chlorides, moisture, and chemical exposure compared to standard 304-grade material. Machinists, pipefitters, plumbers, and general trade mechanics use this type of cap screw where a low-profile socket head is preferred over a standard hex bolt head, especially in tight clearance installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cap screw is suited for use in marine, industrial, and process-piping environments where corrosion is a primary concern. The 3\/8-16 UNC thread form is a standard coarse-thread pitch widely used in structural and mechanical assemblies across commercial and residential trades. Typical applications include equipment mounting, bracket fastening, and mechanical component assembly where a flush or recessed fastener head is required. The socket drive style allows installation with a hex key or Allen driver in areas where a wrench cannot swing freely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 inch length under head for moderate grip-range fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16-inch hex socket drive for use with Allen keys or hex bit drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel construction for enhanced corrosion and chloride resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-profile socket cap head suits tight-clearance and recessed installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard fastener for any application requiring a 3\/8-16 UNC hex socket cap screw with a 1-inch length under head in 316 stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed with a 5\/16-inch hex key or a matching hex bit and driver. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Do not mix stainless steel fasteners with dissimilar metals in environments prone to galvanic corrosion without an appropriate isolating barrier. Follow applicable mechanical or piping codes for the torque class and thread engagement requirements of the specific assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161501\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 63537\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698497618226,"sku":"63537","price":33.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5434424ee8792d46088bbc845b4281b7.jpg?v=1788363809","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-63537-hex-socket-cap-screw-3-8-16-unc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
