Value Collection 837195PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 5/16-18

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 837195PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in industrial, mechanical, and trade applications. The fastener features a 5/16-18 UNC thread size, a 1/2 inch length under the head, and a 1/4 inch hex drive. Constructed from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, it delivers solid tensile strength and basic corrosion resistance. The fully threaded shank provides consistent clamping force throughout the engaged thread length. This screw is typically installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, pipefitters, and general trade professionals where a recessed hex drive is required for torque application in tight spaces.

The 837195PR is suited for light-to-medium mechanical assemblies, equipment mounting, and structural fastening tasks in residential and commercial settings. The 5/16-18 UNC thread pattern is a widely used coarse-thread standard, making this screw compatible with a broad range of tapped holes and hex nuts in standard UNC configurations. The zinc coating provides mild environmental protection, making it appropriate for dry indoor installations or lightly controlled environments.

Key Features

• 5/16-18 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• Fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement for consistent clamping force
• 1/4 inch hex socket drive for use with standard hex keys and socket drivers
• Alloy steel construction provides high tensile and shear strength
• Zinc-plated finish meets ASTM B695 for basic corrosion resistance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring a 5/16-18 coarse-thread fastener with a 1/2 inch length under the head and a 1/4 inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

Install using a 1/4 inch hex key or socket driver. Ensure the receiving threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Verify thread engagement is sufficient for the load requirements of the application. Do not overtighten, as alloy steel fasteners in zinc-plated finish can be susceptible to thread galling if lubrication is not used in high-friction fits.
