Value Collection 837363PS Hex Socket Cap Screw 1/2-13 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 837363PS is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications across industrial, mechanical, and structural assemblies. It features a 1/2-13 UNC thread size, a 2-inch length under head, and a 3/8-inch hex drive. The alloy steel construction provides strong tensile and shear resistance, while the zinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion protection for general-use environments. This fastener is fully threaded, meaning thread engagement runs the full 2-inch length under the head. It is installed with a 3/8-inch hex key or socket drive tool and is suited for use wherever a standard UNC socket cap screw is specified.

This screw is used in a wide range of general industrial and mechanical applications, including machine assembly, equipment mounting, jigs, fixtures, and fabrication work. The 1/2-13 UNC thread pattern is one of the most common coarse-thread sizes in North American trade work, making this fastener a standard replacement or build-out component for shops, maintenance crews, and field technicians. It meets ASTM B695 fastener standards and fits applications requiring a recessed-drive cap screw in alloy steel with a zinc coating.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• Fully threaded 2-inch length under head for maximum thread engagement
• 3/8-inch hex socket drive for use with hex keys or socket drive tools
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile and shear strength
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in general-use environments
• Meets ASTM B695 fastener standard

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-use fastener for any application requiring a 1/2-13 UNC fully threaded hex socket cap screw in alloy steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a 3/8-inch hex key or matching socket driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Apply appropriate thread lubricant or thread-locking compound as required by the application. Do not overtighten beyond the rated torque specification for 1/2-13 alloy steel fasteners as defined by the applicable engineering standard for the assembly.
