Value Collection 872375PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 1/2-13 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 872375PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications across industrial, mechanical, and structural assemblies. This partially threaded fastener uses a 3/8 inch hex drive and carries a 1/2-13 UNC thread form. The body is machined from alloy steel and finished with a zinc plating for basic corrosion resistance. At 3-1/2 inches in length under the head, this screw suits medium-depth clamping and joint applications. Licensed machinists, millwrights, and maintenance mechanics are the primary installers in production and field service settings.

This cap screw fits typical bolted joint assemblies in manufacturing equipment, machinery frames, structural fixtures, and general mechanical assemblies requiring a socket-drive fastener. The 1/2-13 UNC coarse thread is one of the most common inch-series thread sizes, making this screw a standard fit in a wide range of existing tapped holes. It is sold individually but must be ordered in multiples of 5 per the supplier minimum order requirement.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 3-1/2 inches length under head for medium-depth clamping applications
• Partially threaded shank provides a smooth grip section for precise alignment
• 3/8 inch hex socket drive for use with standard hex keys and socket tooling
• Alloy steel construction meets ASME B18.8 and ASTM A574 fastener standards
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion protection in dry or mildly humid environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation hex socket cap screw for any application requiring a 1/2-13 UNC partially threaded alloy steel fastener with a 3/8 inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed mechanics, millwrights, or qualified maintenance technicians. Always de-energize and lock out machinery before replacing or tightening fasteners in mechanical assemblies. Use a properly sized 3/8 inch hex key or socket driver to seat the fastener; do not use an undersized key, as it will damage the socket. Follow applicable torque specifications from the equipment manufacturer or relevant ASME standards for 1/2-13 UNC alloy steel fasteners.
